I can't believe I copied out my entire Master's Thesis (87 pages of a wind ensemble score) by hand, using india ink and Cameo paper. I did have the advantage of a hi-tech electric eraser, which sometimes left holes in the paper when pressed too hard. Talk about another century!

I note that the last line on the page says " I then print to a (EPS) file from the notation program, using the Postscript printer driver."
Maybe Finale should move up to HIS century.
Ah! MusicTime! That's what I used in high school (albeit the "Deluxe" version) to scribble out my compositions.I thought it was so cool that I could hook my keyboard up to my old Windows 3.1 machine and get what I thought was professional output.
Nowadays, of course, that program isn't worth the CD it's burned to, but G-VOX is still trying to sell it. It's somewhat of an "Encore Lite."
I find it interesting (as Richard mentioned) that he mentions no problems printing to EPS from such an antiquated notation program. MusicTime still "dumbs down" Windows, even XP, to run in a Win3.1-style 16-bit architecture!

I know what public school music has done for me. I have witnessed the journey it has provided my daughter and hundreds of other students I have been fortunate enough to teach. I am both amazed and outraged that there are those who would knowingly disenfranchise generations of humans by excising the practice and inculcation of an entire heritage from our children�s curricula.
