I hadn't intended to flame a Mac vs Win discussion. I was merely pointing out that the ASV issue wasn't caused by a Win machine, but probably from the setup in Preferences, which Mac also has.
Question: are there features in Finale that are Mac only or Win only?

Knowing that an OS upgrade won't break the software seems like a feature to me!
The keyboard remapper on Windows. The Alt+letter scheme to access menus on Windows (benefiting both the typist and the macro writer). TG Tools align/move functions hotkeys on Windows (Alt+keypad*, Alt+keypad+, Alt+keypad-).
I make use of Autohotkey, which is a Windows-only thing. There may be a Mac equivalent that does what Autohotkey does--I don't know.

Like I said I have no preference. But why would anyone spend twice, even more, for a machine that did nothing better. Perhaps not as well? Once the software is running there seems to be little difference.
