There is only one QB2001 sold in the U.S. Its box says, "download
payroll updates for 60 day free trial period, then continue to use
the last payroll update and receive or subscribe to basic payroll
to continue receiving updates ..."
It means you get a free initial subscription to Basic payroll and
can update tax tables for 60 days. You can then use the tables free
until 2/15/02. Some QB support personnel may say you must pay $130
after 60 days. The heads of QB Professional Advisor, documentation
and payroll departments say that is wrong. I changed the system
date many times to confirm this.
