[lug] Escaping TurboTax to Open Source?

[Elyse M. Grasso]

For those who don't want to use an online service and will accept a halfway 
solution, I found an article that says this year's TaxAct works with WinE. It 
does in fact install cleanly once Wine is working. 

I need to find my last year's hardcopy tax papers or remember the password for 
the Windows machine I did last year's taxes on before I'll be able to say 
more than that.

Anyone have ideas for getting into a Win 2K Pro machine that hasn't been used 
in a year? I've tried every password I can think of. And I think I need Win 
2K actually running: a Linux livedisk with an NTFS module will just get at 
the TurboTax proprietary format file. I don't think I saved a pdf.
