QuickBooks 2004 Forum

I just sent this to our hosts...
I love you, (even more important) I like you, (even more important than that) I trust you. But I think you're all a pack of dunces. If you can't see the major economic and strategic importance of QuickBooks to your business model (and that of every small business in America) you deserve to fail.

As you might know, Intuit owns virtually the whole of the small business accounting software market in this country (and several others) and is stupidly refusing to port QB directly to Linux because they're (apparently) afraid of the GPL. We know they're stupid but they don't -- yet -- and that is what offers you the opportunity of a lifetime. One day, Intuit will wake up and your moment will have passed -- so you REALLY ought to act NOW !

You can build a REAL future by enabling QuickBooks (Basic, Pro, etc) to run under at least one distro. Even a tiny slice of the small business accounting market -- immediately switching to CrossOver and religiously buying every new release of CrossOver -- will astonish your cd replicator, your banker, and your financial planner. In fact, I bet you'll lure a good fraction of that vast market away from M$ every year going forward -- until the GatesKeepers decide to pay you a jillion dollars to quit and go live in some tropical paradise. Or is that the problem? Are you afraid of succeeding? Are you afraid that making a lot of money will somehow impair your ethical stature ? Make you less than "cool" ? Only if you're vulnerable to begin with, bro.

Maybe you're too young to remember when BillyGates tried to buy Intuit (ostensibly for their online banking network) but was refused by the FTC and the SEC, both. He went on to build M$ Money but his small business accounting strategy never recovered from the lost Intuit opportunity. And Intuit has always listened to the siren song of BillyGates and his Keepers so they link QB ever more tightly to the M$ os -- sole os, IE, etc. (if I wanted to, I could build a really tight conspiracy theory there).

The bottom line is this: You can eat a huge bunch of M$ pie if you simply reach for it. Sure, Billy's got the earth's worth of money and you'll likely never get even the moon's worth -- but a nice sized asteroid's worth is still a neat ambition. You use the phrase "killer app" as a pejorative. It's not. It's real and it's QuickBooks. Get it and get on with it.

I think it looks as if you've tried to 're-install' Quick-Books here, hence the sharing violations. Can i suggest trying to carry out the install into a 'fresh' crossover bottle?
