Think about the stupidity of that information provided to Jim.  It takes Jim only 14 minutes to prepare the identical return that it takes one of us 2 hours and 25 minutes?  Are the rest of us really that slow or are we comparing apples to cantaloupes?  How many of us can't prepare a return with 2 W-2s and one 1099-INT in 14 minutes?  But how many of us can prepare a return in 14 minutes that has 10 W-2s, 12 broker 1099s, 5 rental properties, 11 K-1s, and a partridge in a pear tree?  Other than to make Jim feel good, does it really provide any real meaningful information?  Now if it came back and said "congratulations IRonMaN, you prepared that return in 12 minutes and as a reward we are releasing form 5227", I might be willing to listen.
