If you're interested, GnuCash could use some developers
(www.gnucash.org), and I generally enjoy helping out as I have time.
You'd have an initial expense for the CVS checkout of the source tree,
but after that, updates should be fairly cheap.
Currently, you could learn all kinds of things working on GnuCash
(guile, eperl, swig, C, GNOME, Gtk+, LessTif, autoconf), though that's
not necessarily a selling point for the user :> :<
