The e-mail announcement I got was for Windows, so, being on Mac, I ignored
and trashed it. Did any Mac users here get a Mac-oriented e-mail? I need to
save money if I can and if there's a promo code that works for my situation
I'd appreciate knowing about it.

Several months may mean the end of your business.
Not at all. All ya gotta do is reinstall Windows and Finale once a month. If
your business depends on it, you will probably be able to have a separate
machine for this. But not even that is necessary. There are lots of ways to
abbreviate it, so

Sibelius apparently manages the transfer of licenses
from one machine to another via floppies, which
strikes me as not such a great idea. (What do Mac users do?)
I would say that finally, after 20 years of IBM PC compatible
floppies, we have a successor to the floppy which fits into

software is amongst the most fragile in existence.
Rather sweeping statement, isn't it?
Someone mentioned a Mac/PC take on copy protection and Id only point
out that Mac OSX users have had quite a few reasons to upgrade their OS
As far as Ted Ross goes, I have it both in print (2 copies) and on CDrom
so I'm not interested in a reprint.
As for Gardner Read's Thesaurus, I don't know anything about the book so
it is hard to say -- mightn't you be able to talk them into a CD-rom
version for a lot less? $100 seems a bit
It's the one working day bit that is the problem -- they don't work on
the weekend or late at night. At least they didn't when I registered my
copy of Sibelius. So if you have a problem on Friday evening, it might
not be until Monday that you can get working again. Which is rotten if

If I didn't already have a copy of the Thesaurus, I would be happy to pay the asking
price of $100, ridiculous though it is. I have found the Thesaurus to be one of the
most useful books on my shelf. For those who haven't seen it, it is basically an index

A challenge/response system is where the program generates a code which
you have to respond to with a different code. To receive your response
code, you have to call the publisher (makemusic in this case) with your
challenge code and they will give you the correct (hopefully) response
code
As it is Ted Ross's book and he's dead, as far as I'm concerned, nothing
new can be added, unless he wrote some additional material before he died.
If somebody wants to bring out a new Standards of Musical Engraving
sort of book which could incorporate Ted Ross's book as a starting
point, that
I can't find finale's end-user license, but most end-user licenses I
have ever read contain a clause which removes all liability from the
publisher of the product. Here are some quotes from Finale 3.5 upgrade:
