- Mint (www.mint.com) will take a little while more to EVOLVE to what you need (quickbooks killer) but it takes care of some of your basic needs.
- Google Spreadsheet: I know a slew of people who use excel (as in with macros and scripting) as a mainstay app. Google's mimic of excel is heading that way as well.

I still use the stand alone Quicken, but there was a great Wall Street Journal article about this subject. I would suggest reading this for some additional background.

You can not beat Mint (http://mint.com)
It tracks your bank accounts, Checking accounts, Investments (e-trade, etc.), Credit Cards, and even things like PayPal and Prosper.

It will also seek out ways for you to better optimize your cash flow.

You can set it up to give you alerts when you are approaching budget limits, bills are coming due, new money is available, etc.

It is truly a one-stop-shop for finances; it is all I use anymore.
