I just hand all of my paperwork to Alex Polglaze<*>, also on this list, 
and at year's end to Mark Egan, his preferred accountant. No computers 
involved and they're good at sorting out financial disasters too.

They use Linux for a lot of gateway and server stuff and as soon as I 
can get proper Lotus Word Pro and 1-2-3 support into OpenOffice, 
they'll switch entirely to Linux (that's the _only_ thing stopping 
them: http://www.openoffice.org/issues/show_bug.cgi?id=11215 - vote for 
that if you want to help).

<*> Full disclosure: I usually hand it to Jodie, which leaves Alex
    free for important stuff like 4WDing along Cable Beach.
