And all the tax receipt projections/budget deficit projections assume the AMT will snag an ever greater share of the population.

I couldn't quickly locate an article that quantifies the A.M.T. impact. However, if this graph is correct it MUST be very significant.......

Well, I hope you noted that that graph shows little impact for 2005 taxes and very big impact for 2006.

Therefore, I would guess that AMT didn't play a very big role for estimated taxes in 2005......but if projections pan out and Congress doesn't amend it, this will be the last year we can say that.
