'Downloading Quotes' posting to wrong date
Pros: Turbo Tax interface
Cons: "Downloading Quotes" posting to wrong date
I have over 20 securities with about 15 years of buying and selling of dozens of securities in the database, all done from the beginning in Quicken.
I am an experienced Quicken user (cash flow and investing) and investor.
Quicken is posting downloaded prices to the wrong date. Example: Monday 9/3/2007 was a holiday, the markets were closed. Tuesday evening after downloading current quotes, Quicken updated prices for 9/3 and 9/4 with the same price for stocks. Mutual funds were updated for 9/4 only.
This causes ?Portfolio View? to show no daily activity for dollar or percent changes for stocks. The total portfolio value is accurate but I really want, ne need, to also see the daily activity.

Buggy to all heck
Pros: nicer graphical displays
Cons: Flickering interface locks up video card
Buggy is all I can say, but for only one reason so far - and only because the one reason keeps me from using the product! There is a horrible issue with video cards. The application does little more than constantly flicker, or refresh - possibly enough to invoke seizures! The support (little that I dug up) states to adjust the speed of the video card to the lowest setting. I only took it down a couple of notches to no avail. I wasn't about to change it for the one application that is having issues.
I demanded a refund, and was told that it's been processed. I will give them props there as I thoroughly didn't expect that to go over.
Stay away
