I'm running Quicken 2009 H&B in a VMWare instance of Windows Vista
Ultimate 64 bit under Ubuntu 9.04. No problems. Does that count? <span

<br>
And yes I went to Ubuntu. And yes I plan on ridding myself of the
Quicken affliction too and go instead with just my banks web sites and
Mint.com...<br>

Hi, Shorty.

As reported here many times, I've been running Quicken in 64-bit Windows for
about 5 years now, in WinXP, Vista and now Win7 Ultimate x64 RC. I can't
say "No problems", but none that were caused by the 64-bitness. Just the
same problems that have been found and fixed by users of 32-bit Windows.

Come on in, the water's fine! ;<)
