You right,
they sales are up 11%, but this is because most people find about this just
after they bought software. I bought myself software, but this is my last
purchase of Intuit product. I allways bought Intuit - I have Quicken,
QUickBooks and also tax software. But I had activation problems - after
changing computer I could not use tax software. I called Intuit (long
distance charges!!!!) and found that you can get help just during business
hours. But I work during business hours! There is no help after hours on
home usage software! So guess what, my upgrade this year was already from
Quicken to MS Money. And you can be sure that next year I'll not buy Intuits
tax software. And when upgrade cycle will come, I'll by Simply Accounting
instead of QuickBooks. Yes, I am a single person and it is not a big deal on
bottom line for Intuit. I'll probably will be able to change a mind on tax
software choice this year for couple of coovorkers, they maybe to couple
others. But bottom line - with help from me and like others like me their
sales are up 11% and not 22%.
Most interesting - I am not totally agains product activation. I use
Microsoft activation on XP products and don't complain, because it is done
properly, no programs that runs on your computer all the time and most
importantly when you need activation help - you can talk to person 24/7. I
am against activation where you can get help just during business hours and
you have no clue how many other stuff software installed on your machine.

No more Intuit for me....
