That's been my take on it. I've been using 2007 since last year's
upgrade, and have done several projects in it. My last one was very
complicated, modern notation with a 1/4 tone key signature setup.
First big problem I ran into was file corruption. And as is their
usual sentiment, MM cannot replicate. BS.
MM has their head so far up their corporate anal tract that sadly, I
don't ever see them viewing the light of day again. I'll hang around
to see, due to the fact that I have an inordinately large body of
work for clients in Finale. So I basically have to. But I'm not
optimistic.
OTOH, I am starting to gear up some interest now that I've ordered
the Sib5 upgrade.

Well, this was the shove I needed. 50% off and you put it

steadfastly refuse to do. So I took the plunge and ordered the
competitive upgrade.
Correct me if I'm wrong, but it seems that the overwhelming
consensus is that Finale 2008 has all the problems of 2007 and then
some, without any new features that would make the pain more
tolerable. (I know there are new features, but do they improve the
day to day experience of Finale?)
I'll wait until the first bug-fix to reevaluate buying Finale 2008.
