You are right I was somewhat unreasonable and, I would add, unfair.

I was wrong and I apologize to Jeremy and Steve.

I thought Jeremy's response to me was quite reasoned on the other hand
and made me see that I was out of line.

I was not diligent in that I really did not take the time to understand
that Quicken 2007 was not fully supported as it's “bronze”  designation
spells out – I simply saw it was supported and assumed that meant I
would get the same level of functionality as I got with Quicken 2004 on
CXO 5.0. - strike one

Also my support requests were answered promptly after the weekend
 – strike two

And last Jeremy and Steve both made it clear that I could get a refund
 - strike three.

I was disappointed and frustrated after having such great results from
CXO 5.0 with not only Quicken 2004 but with unsupported Turbo Tax and
ended up  blaming the messenger when I went to CXO 6.0 and ended up with
nothing.

The big ticket item for me is being able to automatically schedule
updates from my financial institutions – I am looking into some work a
rounds based on several suggestions I have received.

CXO does a great job in an impossible environment. I am hoping Quicken
2007 will eventually get to where it will do automatic updates so I can
get it back on my SuSE machine.
