OK, fair enough, Markus, but is there somebody that *can* speak for the
Windows version? I kinda thought that from v. 4 onwards the idea was
that Mac and Windows versions would be developed in parallell....

To be realistic about this. Take into account that the technologies involved
in maintaining cross platform conformity are not equal. One
week we hear of the PIII, then amazing advances in Apples chosen processor
and a week later we hear of such processors as the Athlon etc. To
make the software completely identical across all platforms would inhibit
the developement process. We are always begging for more yesterday
and we have to accept that what will work on one platform may not yet be
possible on another today.
What software company, delivering cutting edge software, can really claim to
have the 'same' features on both platforms released on the same
day. To do this, would stop a 'ready for distribution' application!
There's a reason for everything.
