TBTrpt3: Yeah, I hear you. We used Turbotax for several years. I think for most simple situations (1 W4, very few deductions), it works fine. But once our financial situation became more complicated (ESPP, some contracting income), going to a tax professional was more than worth the extra expense. She was able to tease out deductions that were perfectly legitimate, but I would've never thought of them.
