Paul, I hate to lay a cliche on you, but there is good news and bad news. TurboTax is very good, but it takes time getting used to. Its basic m.o. is to walk you through an interview. Assuming it has asked all the right questions, you will have a complete tax return at the end of the process. I prefer to get all my data well organized and enter it directly into the appropriate forms, and this of course is where familiarity with the program becomes important - I know how to handle margin interest without going through the interview because I did it last year. So, there is a learning curve, and I predict your first year with the program will prove frustrating.

Once you get over the first year hump, though, there are no insurmountable problems, and it will remember your data from the preceding year to make data entry a lot easier - e.g. just fill in the box for interest income from your bank without entering the bank name again.
