Here's one in addition to my own favorable experience as a Beta tester 
for the last 3 versions:

Purchased Mac Quicken 2006 from Intuit this morning. I have been one of 
those people that
purchases every version, going back about ten or so years.  And every 
year, i swear I'm going
to pass on the new version.  And every year, I buy it.

For me, Mac '06 would be a make or break version.  If it was yet 
another buggy, unstable,
weak version, I was going to go the VPC route.  I must say, I was 
pleasantly surprised.

The Smart Payee feature alone is worth the upgrade price.  
Additionally, the Remove
Capitalizations from Downloaded Transactions is also a great addition.  
The ability to "set
and forget" the backup to your .Mac account is great as well.

I have been beating on the program as much as possible; and performing 
actions that would
make '05 crash.  So far, so go.

It might be a bit early to say this, but perhaps, there is hope for the 
Mac version after all :)
