The EDITORS' CHOICE of this review says:
In power, ease of use, and included and
help features, TaxCut Platinum and TurboTax
Premier are dead even in our eyes. Both are
excellent products that get the job done
and then some.
As to users, teams of TurboTax employees
are now monitoring newsgroups and forums
and directly contacting many of those with
problems. So far every report of CDR & W98
problems involves Windows not being updated.
A while ago I saw a new CDR complaint. I
wrote the poster and Tom Allanson, Intuit
Senior VP of Consumer Tax, at 2:00 AM. At
4:18 AM Tom emailed they had previously
seen the complaint and were trying to get
a phone number for the user!
Do you think H&R has ever done anything
like that?
