My sister used to work for Chipsoft, the company that originally
developed Turbotax. She then worked for Intuit after they bought
Chipsoft. She uses the pro series product, so I always send her my
tax file so she can review it for errors. I've used Turbotax since
TY1990. I've run it under dos, dosemu, W95, possibly wine, os 9,
possibly os X, and finally the online version. Ignoring the flash
issue, the online edition has certainly simplified things. No more
lengthy downloads and updates, no more messing with emulation, and
importing the previous year's data is easy. That said, it's still one
of those love/hate relationships.
