Look, the fact is that a cheap laptop isn't going to hack it. Even David Fenton
agrees. And just bashing Apple products just shows ignorance on your part.

Not in this case, really. I'm way ahead of you on this one.

Noel,
Sorry for not being clear enough. The pizz. was taken from the default set,
but since I could not find an arco to counteract this, I set up my own.
What playback parameters should I create for this? I have found it
confusing because there are the parameters that work the "old" way and t

Hi All,
I need to purchase a new desktop computer. I am running Finale 2010 Windows
at the present and will likely upgrade to 2012 when it comes out. I engrave
full orchestrations and want to be able to play any and all of the sounds.
I also want something that I will not outgrow in a few years.
