Poor knowledge of Colorado tax rules
Pros: Federal was OK
Cons: Colorado lines 7 & 8 incorrect calculation
"I think there is a problem with the COLORADO Form 104. In the pension/Social Security calculation (Lines 7 & 8)when husband has pension and Social Security and spouse has only Social Security. Program allocates all S.S. to husband and won't allow S.S. for spouse"

Good Program
Pros: Easy to use and install

But don't be fooled. If you have any complexity to your tax issues, you need a professional -- this won't do it all for you.

Mac OSX version is 2-years Outdated
Pros: Feh! A load of CRAP software for Mac users
Cons: Won't load or start
Which is the stupidest thing in the world. Safari is now up to version 2.0.4 for MacOSX v. 10.3.9
AND the Safari required has been long updated about 2 years ago.... when the Mac OS was labeled "Panther." Holy crap! "Tiger" superseded "Panther" at least 2 years ago! TWO YEARS!
TaxCut didn't even support Mac's LAST YEAR!
And it didn't even check or mention or look for any other browser I may have such as the wonderful "FireFox" or the clunky "Opera."
What a moron bunch of backward software developers H&R Block hires..
And WE trust them with math to do our taxes?!...SHEESH!
TurboTax here I come!

Vary bad technical support
Pros: Good interface and easy to use
Cons: No backup CD for state programs
I decided to uninstall and reinstall the federal program (very bad idea). When I tried to reinstall my original state program, I was directed to purchase again the same state!
I called to technical support several times and didn?t get a solution to my problem. Finally I had to reinstall the software on other computer. After I purchased the second state program, I called again to the company to get a backup CD. They told me to copy the whole directory to a cd y this cd should be my backup CD!
What if I need to reinstall the state programs? Purchase again?
