Read klunk's post below.

Get a trial copy and test it out first. You'll probably need a very
different hardware setup with the 2006 version. Depending on the
structure of your data file you may exprerience horrific delays in
processing simple transactions like entering a bill or a PO. Check out
the user forums on the QB site for more horror stories.

I have to add a couple of positive things:

The only reason I didn't nuke Quickbooks 2006 from 3 companies is that
the cash basis reports now don't take 5 to 10 times *longer* to
calculate than the accrual basis ones.

On a probably related issue, some external programs that rely on the
SDK to pull data and produce reports also don't take 5 to 10 times
longer to do their job with cash basis data as before.

For all the thousands of hours of wasted time with this problem only,
they should still give out free Quickbooks copies for the next 5 years
to all existing customers. It looks like they fixed one major
glue-sniffer error. Let's hope they'll fix one more in the next
decade.
