    Good Software-Bad Price

    I wish Intuit would give us Mac users price equity with their PC offerings. Economies of scale and all that why do we always seem to pay double?

    Savings offset price.

    In my experience, the savings in foul-ups, errors, software conflicts, and efficiency of the system, make paying more to use Mac a bargain in saved time and energy to get the job done.

    To me that's value.

    Application v. Web-based

    I've used both and let me say that the web-version is simply too slow and kludgy. It also uses a lot of JAVA which frankly is also too slow on the Mac. Spend the money on the application.

    pricing

    I have used TurboTax for windoze (prior to switching to a Macintosh in 1996) and MacInTax for the Macintosh since then. This year's offering of (essentially) the same product arrived two days ago in the mail. I've been on their "consistent upgrader" list for a long time.

    I _never_ pay retail price. I generally pay about $30.00 for the yearly version and either get the state version included or at nominal cost. To me it's essential to have both federal and state versions of the software.

    They have a persistent problem with respect to my city. I live in NYC and the program usually fails to note the city tax witholding unless I enter my information very carefully. I have called them on this "bug" each year for the past five years. I have yet to receive a free upgrade, though the technical support guru usually acknowledges their error. If you live in a city that also taxes income (I think there may be only two in the US) beware!

    I have no problems with pricing. It always seems fair, the program saves me time and I don't feel that, as a Macintosh user, I'm somehow getting a raw deal.
