Offer Will Help `Money` Customers Continue Meet Their Financial Goals


SAN DIEGO--(Business Wire)--
As part of a new promotion, Microsoft Money users can save up to $50 on Quicken
desktop personal finance software purchases through July 31, 2009. The offer
from Intuit Inc. (Nasdaq: INTU) follows Microsoft`s announcement that it is
discontinuing "Money," its competing product, at the end of the month. 

"We have a permanent home for Money users at Quicken, and we`re committed to
helping them meet their long-term financial goals," said Todd Stanley, vice
president and general manager for Quicken. "People have a lot of choices today
when it comes to managing their money. For more than 25 years, Quicken has been
the leader in personal finance and we will continue to provide easy-to-use
products that help Americans spend smarter and save more." 

The limited-time offer includes $20 savings on Quicken Deluxe (available for
$39.99 with the discount), $30 on Quicken Premier ($59.99), $30 on Home &
Business ($69.99) and $50 on Rental Property Manager ($99.99). 

Quicken is working with Microsoft to create and release an easy-to-use file
conversion tool so current Money customers can quickly and completely transfer
their data into Quicken. That tool should be done by the release of Quicken 2010
in the fall.
