The one I'm looking for is the upgrade from YNAB to YNABPro for the MAC. I turned my mom on to the software, and she got the Pro. I Want The Pro for Me TOO! :) I am so excited to see it come out.

Glad to hear you're excited about the account tabs. "Even though that really doesn’t matter that much it always bugged me that I couldn’t move those around some how." Yep - that's the sort of thing that really makes a difference! :) As for your idea to back up data in the cloud, we agree that this would be extremely useful, and in fact a fair amount of planning and engineering effort has already happened behind the scenes towards this goal! As you might have read in the forums, we're investigating our options to add greater online capabilities to YNAB at the moment, and we think that secure online backups would be a perfect fit for our foray into the online space. I don't want to artificially raise your hopes too much, so I should caution that this is months away, but you can feel confident that we're moving in the direction you want...

Will this be a free upgrade for customers that already own YNAB Pro? Sorry if this is answered in the forums or elsewhere. I'm excited about the draggable account tabs. Even though that really doesn't matter that much it always bugged me that I couldn't move those around some how. And if the program can start faster that would be great too. I just had an idea... 1 thing I am always worried about losing my YNAB file if I had my computer crash or stolen. Alot of times when I am done updating my budget I go find the latest version of the file.ynab and email it to myself that way I have it backed up "in the cloud". And also, then if I am at work and want to take a look at my latest budget I can download the file from my email and work on it. So... would it be possible to turn this type of functionality into a button click from a menu? What I should really do is set up online file backup account. You could bundle that with the program, a 250mb account for free and then a larger account if you want to pay for it, and a button that automatically sends your YNAB file to online backup. I have seen this on another software I use that maybe is something you all should link to http://www.knowyourstuff.org/ That software is free and I guess provided by the insurance information institute. I suppose they get a small cut every time someone signs up for the larger online file storage account. Glad to hear that a new release is due soon.
