GNUCash is very mature and is listed on SourceForge as
"Production/Stable".  I believe that's one notch below their highest
rating, "Mature".  I think people don't view it as mature because it is
geared more toward business finance than personal finance.  Remember,
"different" != "unstable".

That said, we use an ancient copy of Quicken 98 here at home.  But
that's more a function of prying Quicken from my wife's cold, dead hands
than any choice of my own ;)
