There was an amusing testimonial on the SQL-Ledger-users list a week or
two ago about this fellow's accountant being very upset at his switch from
Quickbooks to SL.  It seems there was much less to do, so fewer fees.
Schucks.

I think GNUCash is a great replacement for Quicken, but I don't think it's
the sort of app you want for a business.
