While thinking about this I had a look at Kmymoney. I was able to import
  the data from gnucash and I have been looking at it. Mint Xfce seems to
have kmymoney easily available but not gnucash.

Anyway, I am wondering what list members think about the two programs.
Is it simply a matter of personal choice, or is one better for whatever
reasons.

Any opinions anyone...??
I always found GNUCash a bit heavy for my needs and its reports a little ugly and not all that helpful. If you want to go cloud-based, Wesabe (http://www.wesabe.com) is a decent offering. It's free, has a pretty good community (for sharing tips on how to save money) and a brilliant Data Bill of Rights, which basically says you can take your data and completely delete all traces from their servers whenever you want.
