Transfering MS Money files into MAC software

I currently use MS Money on a PC, but am thinking of getting a MACBOOK Pro. I already know that I can run Windows programs on a MAC with the help of an emulation program, but I really do not want to run two different OS. If I am going to make the switch, I want to go ALL APPLE. As a result of that, I have some questions:

1. Does Apple have a finacial software package?

2. If so, can I transfer all my current MS Money files over directly?

3. Are there any other suggestions you may have to help with this issue?

Cheers,
HEAD

No. However, there are third-party financial programs available for Macs. Besides Intuit's Quicken

there are these:

Notice that the article mentioned above is over two years old.

Here http://emperor.tidbits.com/TidBITS/Talk/2037 is another thread listing QUicken alternatives for Mac.

2. If so, can I transfer all my current MS Money files over directly?

I imagine it depends on the receiving program.
