7.44. QuickBooks

If you've been happily using QuickBooks for Windows to manage your small businessto prepare estimates and invoices, track bills, maintain lists of inventory and customers, and so onthere's good news and bad news. The good news is that QuickBooks is available on the Mac, and, at least at this writing, comes free with many high-end Mac models.

The bad news is that the software, by itself, doesn't let you transfer your old QuickBooks data to the Mac version. You have several choices:

  • Visit an Apple retailer and pay the guys at the Genius bar to perform the conversion for you ($75).

  • Pay Intuit to do the conversion for you ($99 if you can wait 10 days, $250 if you can only wait three days). See www.quickbooks.com/support/index/win2mac/ for details.

  • Follow the rather involved do-it-yourself procedure at www.quickbooks.com/sup-port/index/win2mac/.
