Our review of Turbo Tax Deluxe for Macintosh
Overall rating:  (out of 5)
Turbo Tax Deluxe is Intuit's best-selling product, and probably the most well-known and most praised tax preparation software out there.
Does it live up to expectations?
For the most part. Year after year, Intuit has added so many features to this product, and made it so easy to use, that it is now possible to prepare and file your return in 30 minutes, if you don't itemize.
The easy-to-master filing wizard will guide you through your return relatively effortlessly, while allowing you enough freedom to use the added features that help you search out all possible tax savings.
This Mac version includes all the features found in the PC version (see below).
