Do not buy, before you try it out!
As a long-time Money user I bought Money 2005 Deluxe and had to return it for a refund, because it refused to read my Money 2004 data file.
With Money 2006 I'll be smarter and take advantage of the fact that Microsoft offers a 90 day trial version on their website. So before you buy or upgrade, download the trial and check for yourself, if Money 2006 is for you.
BTW if you upgrade from a previous version, keep a backup-copy of your old file, because once you convert your file to Money 2006, an older version of Money won't be able to read it. For the same reason, consider parallel installations (and double data-maintenance) of the Money 2006 trial and your older version for a while, until you've determined to upgrade to M2006 or ditch it.
