I've been using TaxAct since 1999 and from ordering off the www.taxact.com
web page to actually using the software to prepare my taxes I have been very
satisfied -- I am totally blind and use JAWS.  And, in contrast to the norm,
the TaxAct software has been evolving to be more accessible since I first
used it.

As for Turbo Tax, I had ordered it in 1999 because a friend assured me that
all data was entered in little balloons and it was very easy to use.  It
turned out that his wife actually entered the data for their tax
preparations, I found out to my dismay that I couldn't use that software at
all unless I wanted somebody else to enter the data for me.  But since my
wife can't see either and my purpose for using tax software was to maintain
privacy this was/is not an option.
