Note that I could care less whether or not you use Windows.  I just
noticed some things that might make your Linux experience better, if
you so desire.  :-)

I'd suggest using VLC from RPMFusion.  I've never come across anything
it couldn't play, which is why I've always used it, even on Windows.

Have you tried using the online version?  It works great for most use

edge cases where I wouldn't trust TurboTax in the first place) and
works with any operating system.  I haven't used the software version
in years, and don't miss it one bit.
