I have been using TurboTax, and mostly for laziness continue to use it (it fills in a lot of the stuff from the past years return). One thing I noticed is they try to get you to buy more expensive versions than you really need. I file Scheds A, B, C and D, and they suggest certain versions would "make it easier" to keep track and report capital gains, for example, but in reality I don't it think it does much for you beyond Deluxe. I use Quicken to keep track of investments and Sched C expenses.
