I had a bright idea about sending in my tax return electronically for the first time.
I remembered that I had the install disk for Windows XP Home Edition (version 2002) that belonged to an old wintel PC that ended up here many years ago. I found the package, still unopened, so decided to see if it would install on my Mac. Fired up Boot Camp assistant and created a 20GB Fat-32 partition on my HD. Unpacked and inserted the Windows CD and it started installing. After a while the installer asked for the product key from the Certificate of Authenticity label that was on the old wintel PC. Could not proceed because I had long ago put out in the white-goods collection the sick old wintel PC. The questions therefore are: 1 Will the tax software run under Windows XP Home Edition (version 2002) running on my Mac with Boot Camp? 2 How can I find out what was the product key on the Certificate of Authenticity label that was on the discarded wintel PC? 3 Should I just give up and stick to the paper tax return?
