Re:You are getting used by your accounting software by folz on Thursday March 08, 2012 @10:07PM (#3682725)
The author does a lot of fence-sitting for very little conclusion. For instance:

     Your focus should be on responsibly tracking your cashflow
versus

    [A]ll I really only care about is one thing: my bank balance
Responsibly tracking cash flow is completely different than knowing your bank balance. One is hard and requires keeping track of income, payments, expenses, etc; the other involves pushing a button at an ATM.

Similarly:

    You...need an accountant. Someone who can do your tax
versus

    what you really need is software
TurboTax != a trained accountant.

It's also childishly written. "The nasty stuff the tax man needs to see," really? It's almost as bad as Blogger Bob. This reads like (bad) advertising copy for a press release, but it somehow got five points in five minutes. I'd suspect fake accounts, but pg is good about detecting upvote rings.
