I've been seriously considering upgrading Quicken for several years (I've been using v 2004), but every time I look at the Amazon reviews and read about the unfixed bugs, terrible support and general user dissatisfaction, I figure I'll wait til Intuit gets its act together. With 44% of users still being so dissatisfied, I'll keep waiting. Too bad, since I'd like to take advantage of the transaction downloads.

This information was probably included with the accompanying documentation (which was very scant, by the way, probably due to the fact that the device is a refurbished model). I no longer have the documentation, but I can ask a more computer-savvy person look at it and find out this info.

It's weird. I didn't even know there was a shipping fee until I saw (in tiny little letters of course) on the upgrade sheet that arrived with my computer. I was curious because, when I processed the 'free' upgrade offer it said It would cost me $11+ for 'shipping and handling'. So I checked the sheet & saw that there is a charge to some locations (?)...I'm not on a different planet or anything, but whatever. It's still a deal. :)

No, I called Geek Squad since they did install. They called store and set it up. Took in receipt, made swap, no issies. I did ask for a report of the findings, but not holding my breath for that.Good luck.MD

Yes, after installing it you have to get the upgrade from Nuance available only on-line for free. It doesn't work until you do.

Mine was not upgraded and it is very disappointing. This oversight is an enormous negative and I would recommend that they voluntarily its sale until this problem is corrected. I wish I had never purchased it - for this reason specifically!

Then my friend this is not upgrade, but entire system change! Normally u have to re-install the OS u use.

No. In fact, they moved a bunch of stuff around for no apparent reason and the program is significantly buggier and slower. I wish I hadn't upgraded. If you do upgrade, wait until around December after they have released a whole year of patches and fixes.

I'm also looking for this upgrade but I have a feeling we've been given bad information. I don't see anywhere on the VMware website about a free upgrade for recently purchased product. Only a paid upgrade. Chris L, where is it that you are entering your serial number online?

A friend just made the same upgrade and the answer for him was no. The connectors are different. Since the new unit comes with its transponder, no need to worry about it.

I tried to upgrade. Their software is terrible, so I just gave up. Sorry, wish I had an answer.

I am also looking for the memory upgrade. If someone who has done this could post details, I would be eternally grateful! Not a member of the geek sqad so I am not sure how to go about it - is there a specific type to buy and how do you instal it?

I agree, it is unethical to have the exact same hardware and not enable all of the features. Further make the better model only available at one location for the same price. I have the 2500 and have made it my quest to make it a 2550. So far I have edited the firmware and nearly had it beat. There is some security protocol or checksum that is preventing the upgrade. Since editing the latest version of the firmware does not seem to be working in the short term, I am going to try and take the firmware back to the earliest version I can find and maybe make some magic happen that way. If anybody figures this out let me know, I'll do the same. I agree, it is unethical to have the exact same hardware and not enable all of the features.

No, New Egg had this offer a few months ago. Apparently the memory was not compatible with the MB anyway.
