Not the fact that you prefer the old smelly hoofs unsheathed Ray, but that
you prefer Amadeus Pro over Sound Forge Pro. I have a friend who has just
recently bought both for his Mac, but have not been in touch to hear his
thoughts. He has been a long-time user of Sound Forge on the PC and has
it.

I quite honestly think that some people don't read their emails before
responding. Nowhere in my email did I say that Apple was forcing me to
upgrade to Sierra. The point is that I can't do so even if I desperately
wanted to without buying a new machine. Indeed, I don't agree with something

I'm not sure what this is based on, if it's hardware of software specific. I
