Want to Buy QuickBooks on Ebay - Now's Not the Time
I?m normally a big fan of purchasing products on Ebay. It?s an easy way to shop for what you want, and save money too. Brand new, legitimate copies of QuickBooks are readily available there, often for less than retail. Ebay is normally a great place to buy QuickBooks.
But not now. Right now, what you find mostly on Ebay are older versions of QuickBooks ? 2006 and prior. Don?t get me wrong - there is nothing wrong with older versions of QuickBooks. Legitimate and older versions of QuickBooks work just fine. But there are two problems with buying older versions of QuickBooks on Ebay right now:
1. Software compatibility with Internet Explorer 7 and Windows Vista
and
2. The Intuit Sunset Policy
Software Compatibility Issue: Internet Explorer 7
Microsoft will use its ?Automatic Updates? feature to automatically download IE7 into genuine Windows operating systems by the end of 2006. Therefore, it is important to know which version of QuickBooks you use, so you can decide if you want to install IE7 or not, after it has been downloaded.
Intuit, the publisher of QuickBooks, has announced that it will update QuickBooks 2005 and 2006 to be compatible with Internet Explorer 7 (QuickBooks 2007 is already compatible with IE7). Older versions of QuickBooks will not be updated. Since QuickBooks uses Internet Explorer for some online functions, having the correct match between QuickBooks and Internet Explorer is now important. Take a look:
QuickBooks 2004 and Prior: must use Internet Explorer 6
QuickBooks 2005 & 2006, before being updated: must use Internet Explorer 6
QuickBooks 2005 & 2006, after being updated: may use Internet Explorer 6 or 7
QuickBooks 2007: may use either Internet Explorer 6 or 7
If you currently own QuickBooks 2005 or 2006, be sure to turn on the Automatic Updates feature. This way, when Intuit releases updates, QuickBooks will receive them automatically.
Software Compatibility Issue: Windows Vista
Only QuickBooks 2007 will be compatible with the new Windows Vista operating system. Older versions of QuickBooks will not be updated to be compatible with Windows Vista.
At some point, most computers will be purchased with Windows Vista pre-installed - you may want to buy a new computer soon. Or, you may like Windows Vista and decide to upgrade your current operating system. Either way, if you purchase an older version of QuickBooks on Ebay, you will be forced to upgrade to QuickBooks 2007 after changing computers or upgrading your operating system. Avoid that hassle and expense. Buy QuickBooks 2007 instead.
Intuit Sunset Policy
Another reason to avoid older versions of QuickBooks on Ebay is the Intuit Sunset Policy. Intuit discontinues support and certain electronic services for older versions of QuickBooks each spring. For example, on May 31, 2007, QuickBooks 2004 will be sunsetted. Support and the following services will not be available after that date:
- QuickBooks Bill Pay
- Emailing Invoices, Estimates, Sales Orders, Purchase Orders, and any other form
- Online Banking; downloading banking and credit card transactions
- Certain payroll services
- Merchant services (credit card processing from within QuickBooks)
This effects QuickBooks 2005 and 2006 because those products will be sunsetted in 2008 and 2009, respectively (unless Intuit changes its policy). If you use any of these electronic features, you will be forced to upgrade your software at that time. Why save a few bucks on an older version of QuickBooks, when you can buy QuickBooks 2007 and have it longer?
As you can see, purchasing an older version of QuickBooks on Ebay is just not a good idea. If you do, you may be forced to upgrade QuickBooks sooner than you like.
As a rule, when buying QuickBooks, always buy the most current version available. It will give you more flexibility than an older version of QuickBooks, and will last longer than less current versions.

Customer Review: Great
I wanted to know more about my 2000 Corolla. This book gives you mostly clear instructions on how to replace components of your car. I wish I could compare it to Chilton's version of the car.
Customer Review: Haynes Repair Manual
The Haynes Repair Manuals are well worth the money. Keep in mind these are not as detailed as the auto manufacturer's service manuals, but of course you are only paying a fraction of the cost as the manufacturer's service manuals. These manual include most anything a weekend mechanic needs. They include several photos of repair procedures, tune-up specifications, torque specifications and electrical wiring diagrams for your vehicle. There are times the Haynes manuals lack some detail of your vehicle, but overall they are a good buy. I would recommended these manuals for most people. I always buy one for every vehicle I own.

We're Back!: A Dinosaur's Story
Customer Review: Awesome Movie
For those of you who are adults and read way to much into this movie YOU SUCK!!!! This is a great movie for children and for children to enjoy it you parents have to get off your bum and teach them the differences between fiction and reality. Children will fall in love with the dinosaurs and their friends. It is a great way to show children that having an imagination is okay in the real world.
Customer Review: An Overlooked Treasure
I thank my father for introducing me to this film, at the tender age of seven or eight, because ever since watching it for the first few times, I have yet to hear mention of it again, which is an awful shame, seeing as this 1993 Amblimation classic is of considerably higher crust (and flavor) than much of what's animated nowadays. Call it contemporary '90s entertainment, but that's what's you want when you're looking for animated blockbusters.
Very loosely based on the Hudson Talbott children's book of the same name, "We're Back!" embraces quality animation and a once-in-a-lifetime voice cast (including not only John Goodman and Martin Short, but also Jay Leno and Walter Cronkite) to tell a somewhat basic story of friendship, self-sacrifice, and (to a lesser extent) overcoming one's fears by way of a dinosauric romp through New York City. Solidly constructed, the tale of smartened-up dinoes Rex, Elsa, Dweeb, and Woog lives by enthusiastic appeal that has the ability to overshadow some of the more simplistic aspects of the film, and, if nothing more, remind you why these kinds of films used to be fun.
These simplistic aspects are the film's drawbacks: the plot moves forth at a pace that's almost too leisurely and undeterred, the characters experience minimal development, and the antagonist is overcome with minimal difficulty. Whether or not the viewer is able to embrace these simplicities is what is sure to make or break the film to the individual viewer; if you're able to identify the simple points of the film as nonetheless solid supports of the story, there's a good chance you'll enjoy it. Make no mistake, this is a child's film, but truly one for children of all ages.
