As others have suggested, Noteworthy Composer seems to be a favorite
among vocal people and elementary music teachers. Many of the vocal
sites have music for download in the NWC format. There's a free NWC
reader that's somewhat like Scorch for Sibelius.

I have a friend who sings in a non-professional choir and he would
like to buy a Windows platform notation program that is inexpensive
(say, less than $100US) and easy to use. He would be using it mostly
for 4-part choral music (including lyrics) with keyboard
accompaniment. He does not have a MIDI keyboard, so he'd like to use
the computer keyboard for note input, if possible.
I'm not up on the various incarnations of Finale (Allegro, PrintMusic,
Songwriter) and Sibelius (Student), so I'm not sure what to recommend.
Any suggestions -- not just Finale and Sibelius products -- would be
much appreciated.
