The Newbie test drives GnuCash
(archival copy)
(Linux Orbit, December 2000)
-
I'd been looking around for something that might interest a
Linux neophyte like myself and with a little coaching from
the head honcho at Linux Orbit, I decided to try out GnuCash
and give you the newbie perspective. Although I've always
used spreadsheets to keep track of finances, I figured, what
the heck.

What's New with GnuCash
(archival copy)
(LinuxNews, October 2000)
- GnuCash, the open source accounting and finance system, is
gearing up to become the premier accounting package on Linux--and
is rapidly finding the means to do it.
Rob Browning, one of GnuCash's developers, explained that the
project has been expanding of late. "Right now we have four
full-time developers, and we're about to hire a few more," he said,
attributing the growth of the staff--and the project--to financial
backing from Gnumatic Incorporated, announced August 14, 2000.

Gnucash v1.4.0 Released
(archival copy)
(Slashdot, June 2000)

Ur@eus writes: "The Gnucash team has released the
1.4.0 version of their wonderful Quicken-like personal
finance manager. This is the first stable release since the move from
Motif to GNOME. You find Gnucash 1.4.0 at Gnucash.org" This plugs
a major gaping hole in Linux software: I've been using gnucash for a
year now, and it's made great leaps in terms of features and stability. It
isn't quicken, but its close enough for most of us. If you're having
problems with the main link, try this mirror.

Best of Linux Winner

Computer finance management: it isn't just
for Quicken anymore. In my continuing effort
to move my checkbook balancing routine from
disorganized receipts to clean Linux
automation, I've enlisted the help of GnuCash.
If this program can put my scattered financial
house in order, imagine what it can do for an
organized individual like you.

Another look at gnucash
(archival copy)
(LWN.net, May 2000)
-
Last December we ran a review of gnucash that concluded
that the program - a free personal and small business finance
package - was not quite ready for prime time. Inspired by
meeting the developers at the Linux Business Expo, LWN took
another look at gnucash. Conclusion: it has come a long way.
Your editor is pleased to announce a complete transition to
gnucash, thus getting rid of the last Windows application on
his system. Time to reclaim that partition.

There's no accounting for Linux
(archival copy)
(LinuxWorld, April 2000)
-
Is Linux getting mainstream? Not if you base your conclusion
on the search results I just got at Freshmeat when I entered
"accounting" as my search term. I got geek soup: packet accounting,
multirouting traffic accounting, ISDN monitoring, network traffic
accounting meter, and, at the top of the list, a patch for the net
accounting daemon.

The GNUCash Project: Focusing on Money Management for Linux
(archival copy)
(LinuxMall, March 2000)

Five years ago, Linas Vepstas was working "with a .com. We were with
it, we were hip, we knew which side of our bread was buttered, we
were building this web site with NT... back then, NT was the once
and future king. It was crazy to bet against Microsoft." Then he
discovered Linux--and launched the GNUCash Project, aimed at
developing stable, easy-to-use, flexible financial accounting
software for GNU/Linux.

Gnucash 1.3.0 Beta Released
(archival copy)
(Slashdot, February 2000)
-
Jeremy Collins wrote in to tell us that Gnucash 1.3.0 Beta
is out. We keep the software release announcements to a
minimum and let more appropriate sites handle them,
but this is pretty significant. Gnucash is the best quickenesque program
under Linux today, and as we all know: it's those pesky end user apps
that we lag behind other OSs. We've already got several word
processors, spreadheets and image manipulation coming along nicely,
but seeing development happen in the financial package area (also
games and video) is important. Anyway, I'd suggest checking this one
out: I've been using it since xacc and it's good if you're anal. Check out
the ftp.gnucash.org and report bugs if you see 'em.

A look at GnuCash 1.2.5
(archival copy)
(LWN.net, December 1999)
-
Here is an unpleasant confession for an LWN author to make:
I actually still use Windows. I boot it to run exactly one
program - an old, proprietary personal finance application.
It's the only thing I have ever found useful on Windows.
Occasionally I look around for a free replacement so that
I can recover that one last, small partition on my disk.
This article is the result of my latest attempt - driven,
additionally, by the sinking feeling that my current
application probably won't handle the next century very well...

Personal Finance Software
(archival copy)
(32BitsOnline.com February 1999)
-
Availability of specialized applications is one of the weaknesses of Linux
compared to its operating system counterparts. In the realm of personal
finance, none of the well-known software packages are available for Linux.
Hopefully, Intuit will port their popular Quicken and QuickBooks line of
products to the Linux platform someday. Until then, here are a few personal
finance applications to get you balancing your checkbooks in the Linux
environment.
