I currently use Finale 2002 in OS 9.2.2 on a dual-boot (OS 9.2.2 and

I wouldn't touch 2006 with a 20 foot pole. It is really buggy, slow, and
generally a waste of money in my opinion. 2005 was the last version that
was any good (in my opinion). However, I do think that 10.4 is the
system to use. I've noticed speed gains on my aging systems.
It also depends on
