Quicken 2007 will run just fine in XP... theres just too many problems
with Vista to be makign the switch right now (or ever in the eyes of
many...) half the programs I tried to get installed for a customer had
similar problems, some just doesn't run at all, others wouldn't even
install fully... at least 2 gave links to web sites that, instead of
yielding a new version, instead tell you it'll be availale in "Spring"
or in 6 months or some other BS.

New version wouldn't be needed if MS didn't break certain mechanism
(many of which have to do with a method of registering a DLLs), among
other broken parts.
