I highly recommend RootsMagic. Easy to use, Source Wizard, manual written
for the layman, very reasonably priced ($29.95, or $39.95 with the $14.95
manual), generates narrative format reports, makes great lists (including a
To Do List which I love). I used it's predecessor (Family Origins) for
about 7 years, so I'm a great fan of Bruce Buzbee, the software's designer.

Check out the RootsMagic website <www.rootsmagic.com> for more details,
including a 2-week free trial.
