I ordered the downloadable version from Amazon.com. I have used turbo tax for several years. This is the first time I ordered a downloadable version. However, I cannot install this file because it always give errors on .NET framwork. I googled online. This has been a problem for turbotax for some time. It is not easy to fix it. Being a downloadable version, it probably has tougher requirement on identifying user authenticity. I never had this problem with the CD version.
I called turbotax customer service and spent 30 minutes speaking slowly with a lady in India. Finally, she is going to mail me a CD version for free.
I should have spent the extra 2 bucks and bought the CD version at the beginning.
Service from amazon.com has always been very good.

I have been a Turbotax user for quite a while, and have definitely seen a progression in quality and features of the Turbotax product. I remember last year, there were some installation issues for some. Turbotax 2010 downloaded and installed on my Windows 7 64-bit quickly and without issue. After executing the program, it immediately downloaded some updates and I was ready to get to work.
As usual, the State software is included free. This year, the integration with the State software seems even better. While the State download wasn't available yet, it gave me options for notification and what the status of availability was.
There doesn't seem to be many new features over last year, in fact, as far as I can tell, they don't come right out and say what is new over last year. However, the ones that are there are very nice:
* The Live Community is integrated even more into the software and is a handy feature. It is context sensitive, so the most popular questions for each section appear when you enter that section.
* There is also a Flags section which allows you to easily mark sections to work on later, which has proven valuable when trying to complete forms for which you only have preliminary data.
* Switching between Forms and Interview seems to be smoother as well, and there seems to be several ways to navigate to exactly the data you want to work on.
* It seems to be all about options, for many areas, the software offers you multiple ways of calculating the data so that you get the best possible return.
* Finally, ItsDeductible is still integrated and is a great tool.
Tax software has a unique problem; the features are to provide the smoothest and fastest tax preparation as possible. So, the better they make the product, the less time I need to work with it.
I plan to update this review as I complete my personal/business returns.
** UPDATE 12/28/2010 **
2010 figures are summarized side by side with (imported) 2009 figures, which is very helpful in identifying data that you might still need to enter.
I found that the set of guided questions about entering home office information misleading. Once a home office is added, you must click the Edit button to continue entering more information or else your entry will be incomplete, even though there is really no easy way to tell. That button should be a Start/Update button as found in other sections.
Yes, it is still preliminary, but on the Final Review section it does indeed provide a list of forms that haven't been finalized yet, and an expected due date for each. So you do have some idea of what calculations may change.

Great price, great product, great service ... but, I've been using Turbotax for a hundred years
Amazon had far and away the best price today. This is the first year that I've seen Turbo-tax widely discounted. I use Turbotax Biz to 'what-if' front run my CPA. Turbotax S-corp biz tax prep is frankly as good as the CPA.
There is a download issue that Amazon could easily fix to satisfy the 1-star reviewers. The first 'download' button sends you off into cyberspace and froze up my browser. The freeze had the characteristic of a download management system malfunction. My second try was successful BUT I used a 2 step process: First, follow the links to Amazon's download management software and download the Amazon engine first. Second, download Turbotax. After the Amazon downloader was installed, Turbotax self-loaded in 2 minutes.
