Interesting. Very bad for PC users - I hope that there will be some program in place to make it easy to stay with the program. Have to say it is good news for Mac users - hopefully this means an OSX version will come along real soon now. It also means no more "waiting for Apple" for new features etc. This is good. Bad news for MOTU. I think they will have to rethink whether they want to compete in the Mac domain. Not so bad for Steinberg - It looks like they will become the sole rulers of the PC world. Maybe we should have seen something like this coming - it was possible for companies to be cross platform by making the software in a certain abstract level then compiling to run on the classic os - mac or windows. Since in these systems the application handled most of the work. But under the newer os - NT derivatives or OSX - most of the work is handled by the os itself - maybe it would have been too much work for a company to write parallel, but different soft.... so the fork in the road is built into the technology. A thought anyhow. Bad news for this list - at least in terms of continued developer presence. Emagic's legal beagles have (in my opinion) severely clamped down on what the developers could say over the years, but they are teddy bears compared to Apple lawyers. If we are lucky - maybe Apple will make e-list facilities available on their servers. Dealing with Yahoo hasn't been all that much fun. The upside is that Apple has brought in some serious audio talent in the past year. It seems that they are very serious about making the platform a top notch "native" multimedia venue. A good example is what they have done with Final Cut Pro since they bought it - very solid, very professional and a genuine competitor to Avid. That said, my genuine sympathy to the LAWyers... I urge Apple to run some very generous rebate program that would all current Logic users to migrate with a minimum of fuss and expense.
