I am looking for a good genealogy software package that will run on Microsoft Windows XP. I’ve used Family Tree Maker in the past; however, you never know if you have the latest version. It seems that they come out with a new version practically once per month.

Please keep price, quality, and ease of use in mind when giving a recommendation.

Also, I would like to store a photograph or two (at least) of the person, scans of paperwork regarding the person, and maybe even a voice recording if possible.
