Please do not beat dead horses.
The tax tables were not priced based on the Peachtree price, though
the reverse may be true. They were deliberately priced at a level
that forces you to upgrade, so Intuit saves on tech support for old
versions. For example, the CompUSA QB Pro 2001 price is $119.95, net
of an $80 rebate. The non-Pro version is $50 cheaper, but its rebate
is, I believe $30 less. Therefore, why talk about $130 tables when
QB2001 is, by far, the best QB ever?
