As NueroDoc correctly points out the import from other program option does do the QIF import correctly. But now I've found it's a one way trip--iBank, LiquidLedger, Money.app, Quicken 2007 (Mac), and GnuCash (Linux) all can't import the MoneyDance export QIF (although LiquidLedger gets everything except investments OK).

I've got a few years of data in Quicken that I'd like to have in something else. Importing a QIF to Moneydance is horrible. It treats an initial import like a partial account update that needs to be synced with potentially already entered data. This results in, for me, thousands of transactions that I would have to click Record on, and the overwhelming majority of those I'd first have to select New Transaction (No Match) to keep Moneydance from dropping the transaction. It also doesn't import the transaction category. Without a useful import, I won't even bother looking at any other features.

iBank is not a Quicken killer, unfortunately. Lack of classes to go with categories does not matter much when reporting features are almost non-existent. If you own shares of stock you have to be able to find out how many shares you own. Even simple reports like how much have I spent on X whenever are impossible as far as I can tell.

I have 2 hard drives for use with Time Machine on a 12" PowerBook and a 15" MacBook Pro. Backup and restore work like the disk is plugged in locally. But the driver does not handle the Mac going to sleep. You must disconnect the disk volume before the system goes to sleep. Also, you must eject the volume before you disconnect it (ejecting doesn't disconnect either). I have not tested this with other USB devices.
