Works nicely with DSL using Wine: Fund Manager < http://www.fundmanagersoftware.com >  

I'd be interested in hearing about other portfolio managers
people are using with DSL.  

Note: Run from Wine's taskmanager.  Set autobackup path in Prefs
(eg., z:\mnt\hda3\Program Files\Fund Manager\Autoback)

Some more notes if anybody tries out this program:

If you install the program directory on a /mnt/hda? partition, create a symbolic link from the Fund Manager directory to /dsl/wine/drive c/program files/ , and run from there (through wine taskmgr: "c:\program files\Fund Manager\fm").  Even with the hda? path set in prefs and the registry, it needs to think its on c: for program updates and price downloads, etc., to work.

EDIT:  OK....FORGET about the symbolic links; just install the whole thing in /dsl/wine/drive_c/Program Files/.  Everything else corrupts the data.  Maybe we need a "Wine, Apps" board on DSL.
