I've never used MS Money, so I can't answer for similarities.
GnuCash is a very good application, but to get the best out of it you really 
need to understand double-entry book-keeping.  If you're not used to that, 
I'd avoid GnuCash.

MoneyDance is said to be good, but I don't know its interface.  I've heard 
good things about KMyMoney, but I've never used it.

I'd look for websites, where you should be able to get a flavour of each.  I 
think someone said the MSMoney files can be imported into some of these 
applications.  Again, do your research well before you start.  You'll save 
yourself a lot of time and trouble.
