Great name, indeed.

My daughter, who sells and supports high end accounting systems and can choose whatever she wants to use, uses Quicken for her own work.

I liked the idea that there were 46 systems in place when Quicken came out and since then they've scooped the market.
Pretty much what Dyson did with vacuum cleaners.
