Hi MacAllcock,
Your right, when I had a "PC" (pre windows), If you wanted to do anything at all with music you had to have a "Mac" now it`s all "Windows". I think it`s because as "PC" users grew they wanted what "Mac-users" had and "software&hardware" makers listened. I think in time "Mac`s-&-Music" will be back at a price thats resonable. Scott had refered me to "Digital Performer", very good and very $$$ also there is "Sibelius" a very good notation program but also $$$ so there is software out there but to spend that much for, at least right now, is not in the cards. If I had a really nice KB then "ya-what -the -heck" I`d go-for-it but right now my only midi KB is my 2000
But that too will change,in time!!!!
Then I`ll probably buy both
"Put`n up with the 2000"
