I used TurboTax (Federal) last year. That was my first experience using a tax preparation software instead of the paper form, a pen and my brain. It gave me a pretty pleasant result.This year I was lured to TaxCut due to various discounts - big mistake. I managed to get the Federal form completed after downloading the "company planned" updates. But the state version of TaxCut is more than useless. I need to fill taxes for two states and the CD in the State package can only install one state - the other state "must" be installed through website - not practical for my slow modem connection... I am trying to find the downloadable version for the second state.
