Dear Mark, Viv,

As your experience, my neighbour, over 74 years, studied high grade music, composes music for Piano and Choirs etc. started using computer some time back. Strugled two month with Finale Notepad and its serious limitations.

Yesterday I showed him Finale Print Music, compared with Composer.
It was a "Fiesta" of surprises for him and whole hearted decision for Composer. Particular he appreciated the many logically and userfriedly ways to write his music, and most valuable for him the great flexibility to format notations and parts for printout.

I must give you compliments from him, and buy him a copy.
(and convert his .MUS file into .NOT files)

You may expect I will get some valuable suggestions based on his experience for the wish list, the first one already in another thread.

Keep on the good work.

Cheers Jaap
