I make no comment here, but this is info paraphrased from the advertising
included with the Final version of MacInTax:

1040PC:  An easy way to get your refund fast.  "Best of all, it's FREE."
on the other side, the order form:
   "Product"       "Price"      "Total"
   "1040PC"        "Free"       "Free"
Subtotal...    presumable free
Sales Tax...   presumably none, on a free item
"Shipping ($4.50 1st item, $2.50 each addtl item)"

Comment: if it's so free, why wan't it included with the MacInTax kit?  Is it
safe to assume ChipSoft isn't losing money on the Shipping fee?

As to the electronic filing of returns via ChipSoft, that costs $19.95.
