You're looking at a lose-lose situation Syc ... that's the only kind you ever get with taxes!
If you claim 2 ... you have less money withheld, and you might end up owing Uncle Sugar come next April ... ah, but you'll get to collect all that interest yourself right? Unless you are a stronger man than most, that little bit more you bring home each week is going to be spent on comic books and cigarettes and overpriced frothy caffeinated beverages anyway ...
If the gov't holds onto it for you, you do get it back, and you come away with the happy illusion that you've won. You get the pretty multi-color gubbermint check in your hand (I don't find direct deposit as satisfying, and since they aren't charging me extra for the live check, I go for it.)
YMMV, naturally. I dig the "whoo hoo, refund" illusion.
