According to the latest MacWEEK, there is a bug in the
1040EZ form released with this year's MacInTax. No matter
how large the income, the form will compute a tax due of
zero! The error affects _only_ form 1040EZ. It does not
affect Form 1040 or Form 1040A.

Registered owners can call SoftView with their serial number 
for a corrected version.

MacWEEK remarks, "...we still don't understand why Softview
didn't take the initiative to warn as many users as possible
via the electronic bulletin boards, AppleLink and MacWEEK
as soon as it learned of the flaw."  I agree.
