- No, Rick, it's NOT just you! I really HATED the changes they made to
- the software last year and have really been on the fence about whether
- to order it again this year. All that CRAP that they added to help you
- fill out the forms is completely unnecessary, and the software itself
- was really buggy.
-
- * I couldn't get it to print out all my forms with one
- print request - I had to "manually" print out all the forms needed to
- file.
-
- * It was REAL screwy with the menus - putting two or more menu items for
- what should have been one form.
-
- I TRULY LOVED MacInTax before ChipSoft got their grubby hands on it. It
- was so easy, so elegant.
-
- I've used MacInTax for 4 or 5 years now, and I think that's as far as
- I'll go.
-
- What are the alternatives? Any recommendations?
