[Discuss] Tax software

[Gary Gauthier]

Intuit products blow.
Especially when you consider their devs are still idiotic enough to make
software which requires admin privs to run.
To me that's either outright stupidity or laziness.
I made a decision to never use their products again.
So will probably try Cutetax also this year.

Ttyl, Gary
