Quicken's TurboTax has long won high marks for its
ease-of-use. The 2004 tax year version features a preparation interview
that's more useful (and less annoying, if you know what you're doing).
Quicken also offers the best Macintosh support of the group, with Mac versions
of all its editions.

H&R Block's TaxCut software is a good choice for
people who have experience managing finances and want to prepare their
return as quickly as possible. Some TaxCut users have been able to file
their tax return in just 30 minutes. Extensive help is available, but you
may have to look for it.

Why buy software when you can do your taxes online...
for free? TaxAct.com is probably best for people who already know about
taxes and just want software so they don't have to bring out the calculators
and #2 pencils, though a "Deluxe" version with more tax advice is available.
