I haven't ever used Microsoft Money, but I have been using Quicken for many years--highly recommended.

Seconded. I have used both, and I much prefer Quicken.

Quicken also has a higher end versions that will generate invoices etc, Quicken Home & Business at about $90, I think you can hook it up to some Intuit payroll stuff too. Payroll is a pain. Quickbooks is great too, and will scale to handle 5 or more users.

Ditto on Quicken......look at their "Quicken 2003 Premier Home & Business" software (Quicken home page).

Two more things. You didn't say what OS your son's system is running. I highly recommend Windows 2000 Professional (it's rock solid).........but you will DEFINITELY need to add more memory; 32MB just doesn't cut it anymore. Memory has gotten dirt cheap. I'd recommend going to www.kahlon.com to buy more memory; recommend at least 256MB. You'll be shocked at how cheap it is, and equally shocked at the difference in performance your son will see on his system.
