Hi All,

I had been using Turbo Tax in the past from a Windows PC. Now since I
only have my Debian Linux system and Turbo Tax for the Web does not
support Linux, I am wondering which vendors people on the list have
been using.


Unless something's changed this year, TurboTax on the web works just
fine with Linux.  I've used it the last several years without any
difficulty.  It may not support all _browsers_; I've used Netscape in
the past.  My bank, by the way, claims not to support Mozilla-Firefox
for billpaying, but if I use the User Agent Switcher to make Firefox
appear to be Netscape, it works just fine.  Maybe the same will prove
to be the case with TurboTax.


I used to have a problem with a (sort of) bank's site not supporting
Mozilla (though this was a long time ago) because of broken user agnet
chacking. I called/emailed/pestered them and convinced several of my
friends who were also customers (though not Mozilla) to call and
complain as well.

When enough people call and complained they decided that it was in their
best interests to take the extra few minutes and support the extra
browsers.
