QuickTax Standard 2009
Intuit
2010-01-15
New:
CDN$ 29.99
>> I really wish I hadn't used QuickTax - QuickTax is worse and more expensive than ever. It gave me much grief this year. I recommend strongly that you look elsewhere. Really. It's "help" feature has never been good. It relies on a "community" of users who basically vent at each other about how lame it is. But this year was special. This year it generated redundant forms for my business, and then applied them to my Federal and Quebec returns. And if you try to override any of the results caused by their bugs, they won't let you use Netfile. But it mysteriously decided that a capital cost allowance on a laptop was worthy of being duplicated in its own business form, even though it was already on the correct business form. Oh, it also decided the apartment that I'm renting is a rental property that I own, and it generated forms for that too. And their "donation optimizer" really sucks. And I could go on, but I won't. Please buy something else. Really. I'm trying to help you. If your tax situation is simpler, it might actually work, but UFile or some other competitor would probably work too, and cost you less.
>> Makes taxes a pleasure. Almost. - I am a member of the Intuit QuickTax Inner Circle who has used QuickTax last year. Intuit asked for volunteers to write an objective review. This is my objective review. I love using QuickTax. It makes the job of filing taxes so much easier, with the automatic calculations for medical expenses, T3, T4 and T5 and now with the import function for T slips, it just makes it that much easier. I love the RRSP maximizer function. It really helps for refund planning. The product is easy to use, helps you get organized at the outset, and keeps things efficient. I can't compare it to other products because QuickTax is the only one I've used, but I like it a lot, and would recommend it to anyone.
>> Quick Tax makes your life easier - I am a member of the Intuit QuickTax Inner Circle and have been using this product for several years. Intuit asked the members of the Inner Circle to write a review and I am pleased to do so. It makes an onerous task so easy. Quick Tax will keep your previous years' records so most of your information is already there and you just have to enter the new information. If your income tax situation is simple, you can be done in just a few minutes. I highly recommend this product.
>> Overpriced and ordinary - There's nothing much more special compared with other similar products out there. You can also purchase Ufile for half the price or even get the free StudioTax. Intuit pays its distributors more in order to get them to carry Quicktax almost exclusively.
>> Beats an Accountant - For years I used an accountant to do my taxes. When he retired I thought I'd try doing it myself with Quicktax. 2010 will be my 4th year using the product. I find that I now spend less time completing my taxes than I use to spend preparing everything for an accountant. I have found Quicktax straight forward and easy to use, and that's from someone who isn't all that computer literate.

Organize Notes and Information Home and Student 2007 includes OneNote, a digital notebook that helps you gather, organize, and search many types of information in one place.

Preview Changes and Spot Trends Home and Student 2007 saves you time by making it easier to format your Office documents with Live Preview. This tool lets you quickly preview proposed changes to your document while you're working on it without having to repeatedly search through layers of menus. Taking a look at your proposed formatting before committing to it lets you experiment without risk and can help minimize future edits. Excel features highly visual conditional formatting with new data bars, more colorful gradients, and icons that you can use to format data based on specific rules, so you can more easily identify key data trends, which can help you study and prepare written papers or reports. Create and Save Custom Slide Layouts PowerPoint lets you create presentations with ease using prebuilt and user-defined custom slide layouts. With the custom layout feature you can quickly create the precise layout you envision without being bound by one of the prepackaged, standard layouts. You can then save your custom layout for use in future presentations. Broader Distribution of Your Documents Home and Student 2007's features aren't limited to the work you do at home; they extend to broader distribution of your documents and presentations. New support for Portable Document Format (PDF) and XML Paper Specification (XPS) file formats helps ensure increased distribution and sharing of your documents with users on any platform. This is particularly ideal for either sharing documents with friends and families, or for presenting information and assignments in a computer-integrated class.
>> Stick with the earlier addition. - I was required to upgrade to this version due to courses I was taking. First off, the interface is horrible. Menus have been replaced with "Ribbons" that take up significantly more screen space. If you use a widescreen monitor you will find very little space left to work on your document / spreadsheet. The "ribbons" do not reflect the menus they replace and the graphics lack word descriptors, obviously using language was unacceptable for people using a word processor. You are left searching through a series of cartoons trying to guess what they mean, or systematically going over each to get a description. Secondly, Excel has been modified so that some equations that worked in previous editions no longer operate. If you found yourself breezing through data and formula entry before, get ready for frustration. You'll need a book to help you through the changes, unless you want to chance the help files which brings me to my next point. Thirdly, this edition, much like Windows 7, does not have adequate support built in. Yes it is more massive than the previous version, but you need internet access to get the full help files. Without a constant connection you have to make do with the basics only. In general a very frustrating experience. If you are have to use this version make sure to take a course or buy a desk reference. Of course, if you have to go to the trouble of relearning your office software; why not shop around for something else?
>> Not yet used to the new "ribbon" - Still does all the things I'm used to, but I'm not yet used to the new "ribbon" instead of menus.
>> Microsoft Office Home and Student 2007 English - Not only was the software GREAT but the delivery was super fast and delivered right to my door. For me, living in rural Nova Scotia, I was very impressed. Thanks!
>> perfect - Excellent!Got it after 4 days and it was in perfect condition.I absolutely recommend to anyone.Besides the price is dropping..
>> good product, not so great support help - We bought this newer version of office to put on three separate hosehold laptops. The first one installed great, no problems. When it came to installing in on the second laptop, we kept getting an error message that would appear each and everytime we tried to open the installed programs. We could find no help or information for this online on microsofts website. It took forever to find a toll free number for customer service (none indicated on the product, had to do online search), and I read some reviews that said they may charge us for help?? We called a toll free number and were transferred around, hung up on, put on hold two or three times for more than 20 mins each time, and by the time we were finally able to reach someone that was helpful (and did not charge us for the help) it was 2 hours later. I guess the problem was that there was some trial software for microsoft on the laptop which we had no idea about, and the error message wasn't stating that (how helpful it would be if it did)!! Great product, but awful support when you come across a problem, and they may charge you for help!

>> Premiere Elelments 8 - Having used Premiere Elements 3 very happily for some years, I was very dissapointed to experience problems with 8. If you have XP/Media Edition 2003 then there is a conflict with a Premiere 8 rountine that will knock out Media Edition upon Premiere 8 install. Adobe advised and hopefully a fix will be available soon.
>> Fast shipping. Love the software! - I was a little hesitant about ordering Photoshop Elements because I've used the full version of Photoshop for a number of years and didn't want a dumbed-down version of the product. I was pleasantly surprised that Elements has most of the options I used frequently in earlier versions of Photoshop (layers, cloning tool, filters, adjustments to colour, brightness/contrast, etc) and some new tools that I'd not had in Photoshop 5.5 (like a better selection tool). What's terrific too is now I qualify for the Upgrade version of Photoshop CS4 if I want it. I would highly recommend this for the non-professional imaging afficianato.
>> photoshop elements 8 - Excellent product with many of the features of the professional version but at a fraction of the price. In my opinion it does everything the keen amateur would want to touch up and correct digital photos. The mask features are easy to use and objects can be moved or adjusted with ease. The clone tool makes it easy to retouch scans of old photos.
>> adobe photoshop elements 8 - I paid at least $25 less for this than the price of it anywhere locally (on sale a couple of weeks after I had purchased this item through amazon) Shipping was very fast and convenient, no worries.

Microsoft Flight Simulator X Deluxe DVD
Microsoft
2006-10-17
New:
CDN$ 27.99
Used:
CDN$ 24.99
>> Product Description - Microsoft Flight Simulator X Deluxe Edition lets you immerse yourself in this dynamic, living world of fun. Challenge yourself by flying any of 50+ missions all over the world. Whether it's your first time on the tarmac, or you're a Flight Simulator veteran, get set for adventure on a global scale. Includes 24 airplanes, 45 high-detail airports and 38 cities, and more!
>> Microsoft Flight Simulator X - Have been flying with Microsoft for over 20 years, this is not a game it's a real world flying class. I do not suggest for people who are looking for an Arcade game, it's a serious learning software. If you want to learn all about the real world of flying with Navigation, GPS, Routes, Airport, Air Traffic etc... and if you are ready to invest hours of learning, this is what you're looking for. Personnally, I love it and always will I guess...
>> Slide Show - Just got it. Wonderful simulator, it goes without saying. But My Pentium 4, 1.7 is not ready for this. If you buy it first you have to buy the most modern computer in the world ... otherwise it's better to use FS 2004. I think I'll go back to FS 2004 till I can afford to upgrade my comp or get new one. So far it's slide show.

>> Beware - Disappointed by Backward Steps - I use Windows Media Center (WMC) to record and play Digital HD television on my PC. Note that under Windows 7 WMC does not support the reception of digital tv (ATSC) in Canada. Microsoft simply says that not all features are supported in all countries. No further explanation. This means that under standard installation in Canada, even if you have the hardware, WMC will not receive any digital tv signals. Nor will WMC download any digital programming guide information. There is a hack available on the internet to overcome these limitations but this requires extra steps and is certainly not supported by Microsoft. Also if you previously used Movie Maker be aware that under Windows 7, the Movie Maker that is part of the Live package is a completely new program that has fewer features. Contrary to the expected norm that each new version of a program has a progression of new features, Live Movie Maker has LESS features. In particular, the time line has been dropped. I sure hope Windows 7 proves to be more stable and secure than Vista because so far, see-thru window frames hardly make the investment worth the trouble.
>> Great OS, worth it. - both 32bit and 64bit versions come on the install disc. I'm running Windows 7 64bit. It is a good OS. I used every version of Windows to date. XP is preobably my fav, but I thouroughly think that Windows 7 is almost as good. I just wish it was a bit leaner. I upgraded from Vista 64bit(did a clean install) and Windows 7 is much better. It runs faster than Vista for me on the identicle machine. I didn't dislike Vista, but it was a pig on my PC (slow). 7 is much better. I've had it sicne release day, and I used the beta for months before. So far I havn't had it crash once, and havn't had any issues with drivers. Vista I had some driver issue, but no crash. Only downside, some of my games don't work, seems to be an issue with Starforce copy protection not working with 64bit windows. Trying some worarounds for that... I would recommend it to people.
>> Likes to loop once in a while! - Sometimes the little blue circle likes to go round and round and round when we want to go online-- we go to task manager and it is empty-- so we do a restart and things are fine again for a while.Thanks Ed O.
>> Pleased - I am pleased with the performance of Windows 7 so far, it is similar to XP in many ways, and we get the added features such as the snap feature, etc. I've upgraded from Vista Home Premium, which was such a pain trying to get various applications, or some drivers for hardware, etc; to work. I am of the opinion that Microsoft should have offered 7 as a "free" upgrade from Vista. However Microsoft wouldn't do exactly "like I told them-or pay my rent", ha ha.
>> Love it! - Microsoft has finally got it right! I installed the upgrade from windows XP, but becareful here, windows 7 will reformat your hard disk so follow the back up instructions before you start. This software has run flawlessly since I installed it one month ago. So far I have had no incompatibility issues and the software seamlessly found all the necessary drivers for all my peripherals.

>> improvement on the last version - While I use this primarily as a word processor, I also use it for reading Power Point attachments which would often freeze when using them to use mail attachments. So far this version has not given me this problem, and I've used it for almost a month. However, as a Mac owner, I had previously used Appleworks to write my manuscripts, and this had one advantage over the MS word. When I opened the manuscript I was working on, it would automatically open at the place I had been working on when I last closed that that document. So far, I cannot make MS word do this automatically.
>> Speedy Delivery - They delivered it to my house very quickly, I was very impressed. It was a competitive price too - cheaper than Future Shop or Best Buy!
>> Microsoft Office 2008 for Mac Home - Much improved window, information a lot more accessible quicker to get. Software has benefited from great "sprucing up."
>> Entourage fiasco - I was forced to buy this because of the clashes between 2003 and the new Snow Leopard. Excel works better than ever. Entourage crashes repeatedly.
>> Counterfeit Software - The copy was obviously counterfeit. The key does not accept Office revisions/updates. I have requested an exchange for a genuine copy, but have still not resolved this issue. I reported it to Amazon as well as the supplier. There was no response from Amazon and the supplier is working though a third party mailing agent.

New:
CDN$ 139.98

Get a real-time, easy-to-understand overview of your business with the Company Snapshot, which you can easily access in just a click from the QuickBooks Home Page.

So there's no need to manually create to-do lists or reminders. Just start each day with a look at your business's Snapshot, and use it to guide your activities for the day. Money Comes In. Money Goes Out. You Easily Track It All. Wouldn't it be nice to look at a single screen and see everyone who owes you money... and when you can expect it in your account? QuickBooks can show you that... in just a click or two. Create invoices, sales receipts & credit notes Track & manage stock--so you always know what's in, what's low and what's on order Create POs Customize your Chart of Accounts to your needs Manage taxes & remittances And that's just scratching the surface.

Because You Probably Didn't Start Your Business Hoping to Do Accounts Payable or Receivable... QuickBooks tracks A/P and A/R for you. And it does much more than that, like simplifying government remittances & financial account management in general. It's easy to find the tasks you need the most from the QuickBooks Home Page.

Quickly pinpoint exactly where a customer order is at--estimated, invoiced, partially or fully paid, or overdue Email statements in batches to remind customers of payments due Create reports that show which suppliers you need to pay... and whether you can afford to pay them or not Use Real Info about Your Business's Past To Make Decisions about Your Business's Future. Why guess at important business decisions, like which clients to send thank-you packages to and how to grow your business best? Instead, look to the data, just like Fortune 500 companies do.

Now Featuring QuickFilter Just type the text you're looking for into the search box, and QuickFilter finds it fast. Don't Let Cash Slip Between the Cracks. Get Paid for the Hours You Work. Easy project management functionality in QuickBooks Pro helps you stay organized and invoice for the work you've actually done. Keep track of exactly what work you've done for each client (so you bill accurately) Estimate better by creating standard lists of tasks for different jobs Run reports to see what time & costs you haven't billed yet QuickBooks Pro even reminds you of unbilled hours when you invoice a customer! By tracking time & expenses for each job and turning that info into both estimates & invoices, you'll leave less money on the table.

QuickBooks Pro makes it easy for you to transact in multiple currencies--without worrying about looking up current exchange rates or calculating & converting those rates to Canadian dollars. So you can accept payments from your client in Sapporo, expand your customer base throughout the US and even work with that new supplier in Bangalore. Without ever worrying about the math. We Can't Makes Taxes or GST/HST Go Away. But We Can Make Them a Little Less Taxing. Did you know that every expense you enter into QuickBooks automatically maps to its corresponding tax line on your return? That means you barely have to lift a finger when tax time rolls around. Just create a simple "Tax Agency Report" in Pro, and see what numbers go where. Done! Oh, and let's not forget about GST remittances. Your GST is due 2 weeks after a quarter finishes, which doesn't leave you a lot of time. Thankfully, you can quickly complete your sales tax return in Pro... and then eFile it! No stamps.

>> Lots of Changes - It's just been a month since I purchased QB 2010. There has been lots of changes since QB 2007. You can no longer enter anything into a register that has taxes. Everything is accessible on the main page but I'm not tuned into it yet. You are automatically linked to the Community for help. Kinda handy. There was some major screw ups when I upgraded with my GST because I used an Instalment Account. Even though the Support adjusted the GST balances things are still mixed up with my Gross Income. Your first call to Support is free, then it's $60/call. Ridiculous. Still you can go to the Community for help. It's pretty easy to use otherwise.
>> Quickbooks 2010 Pro is a vast improvement to older versions - I've used Quickbooks for my small business since 1998, and certainly haven't upgraded every year. My previoius version was Quickbooks 2002. Although there are so many more features in 2010 that I won't use, the new user interface, multi-currenty and handling of taxes and payments in far superior to the much older 2002 version.
>> QuickBooks 2010 - The Best Yet. What Great Product. - Was a bit disillusioned by some previous year products, but QuickBooks 2010 is pretty darn amazing. Multi-currency is back, it's intuitive, it's easy, the support is great. I'm really pleased with the 2010 version, but I'm not sure why it's not available here? I told a friend to look it up, and she said it wasn't available yet. A few retailers have it already, and you can buy it from quickbooks.ca. Hopefully it will be here soon too. It should be.

>> Best of the AoE series! - Pros: Good, balanced gameplay, every weapon has a counter, every counter has a weapon. Strategy pays off, tactics too. Good, intuitive controls, a fairly steep learning curve but fun all the way. Totally addicted. Much better gameplay than AoE3. Great level editor and level scripting tools just rock! Cons: Getting hard to find. Can't back up media, had to repurchase when CD went bad. A few more options would be nice - setting default unit stance at the barracks, and displaying/saving/re-entering the RNG seed to create the level would be a nice touch.
>> note a propos de la langue et du prix - bonjour depuis un moment jessaye de me procurer age of empire 2et c seulement sur internet que je peut lavoir. jai remarque que votre prix est exorbitant car mes amis se lon procurer pour moitié prix de se que vous le vendez ,allors jaimerais que vous reevalué votre prix (Microsoft Age of Empires 2: Gold. version francaise!!!!) et de menvoyer une reponse mercipro_737@hotmail.com
>> Great game!!! - This game is amazing! I would say the best civilization is the byzanianites. Tip: before building an army, have lots of villagers working on ressources.
>> Automated farms are great - 1. Farmers start a new farm once the old one is done, you can queue. any one who ever played AOE-I knows how great that is :). 2. The addition of Gates makes for nice Castle building3. Villagers automatically start a new task when they finish a work type building (granary, storage, town center)4. UNIT FORMATIONS!!! my personal favorite only second to the Farm queue. It adds a whole new dimension to battle tactics. huge improvement from AOE-I5. Advanced unit commands. Follow, Protect, Patrol, they just make this game so much nicer.6. the ability to toggle around to your inactive (we'll call it that) villagers. "where's my whip"All this improvements have the feel of AOE developers playing their own game and saying "gee wouldn't it be nice if we had this" they realy polished this game. It belongs in anyone's greatest games list. Easy!
>> Challenging till Boredom - I used to love Age of Empires but it got prety boring by year two. The map editor is fun to use. But the internet multiplayer requires you to have the same version of Age of Empires, and the same system (Mac/Window) as the person you are playing with. The bottom line is buy this only if you have some buddies that have this too.
