There is no Usenet newsgroup dedicated to TurboTax. There
is a TurboTax user forum at http://forums.turbotax.com.
This is probably the best place to get answers about
TurboTax.

Deluxe is essentially the same as in previous years for
Schedule C. If you have been satisfied with it in the past,
you should find it equally satisfactory this year.

The following links may give you more detail than what is on
the box about the additional guidance in Home & Business.

Product info - click the Product Info tab at the following
link.

You could also try out the Home & Business interview online
and see for yourself whether the extra detail is worth the
cost. You don't have to pay for the online version unless
you print or e-file.

IIRC, there are web-based forums for Turbotax at www.intuit.com.

Try alt.comp.software.financial.quicken (brought to you by
those nice people at Intuit who also bring you TurboTax) -
you'll find occasional posts there asking about different
TurboTax versions/features.

Thanks, but I searched and found no TurboTax newsgroup. I
posted my question on misc.taxes--maybe someone there can help.

I don't know of any Usenet group devoted to Turbotax, but
TurboTax issues are often discussed in
alt.comp.software.financial.quicken. There is also a users
forum at www.turbotax.com. There may be a Yahoo Group
devoted to TurboTax, but I stopped using it back in 2002 and
moved to TaxAct.

As for the "extra help" it all depends upon how much help
you need. Intuit wants to sell you the more expensive
version. However, if the Deluxe version has all the forms
you need, and I believe it does, then it can be used to file
Schedules C and SE along with your 1040.

Has anyone here bought the Deluxe version of TurboTax 2006
yet? I've used it for years, and I heard that it's still
usable for self-employed people. But the chart on the box
for deciding which kind to get is not very clear. Is the
"extra help" included on the Home & Business edition really
worth the extra money or can I confidently buy the Deluxe
and carry on as in previous years?

Someone will give you directions to the Turbotax newsgroup.
