I am having one hell of a time trying to find SCORE here in Seattle... one store has an old version.. but they don't have any machines for me to see it running on! Anybody know a good mail order house that carries SCORE? Estimated price? Does it run on a 486? and midi hardware timing problems on a 486? I hear WINDOWS 3.0 is rather slow... does this make using an intensively graphic oriented set of programs: SCORE, PAGEMAKER etc in a multi-tasking environment ridiculously frustrating? Also.. does someone know how far along the port of SCORE to NeXT is? Seems like this would be ultimate: Poscript Score- Poscript Display.. Supposedly the NeXTstation 040 is plenty fast on the screen. -kevin ramsiri@blake.acs.washington.edu

You might as well contact Passport directly with all your questions. Frankly, I can't see any good reason for running SCORE under Windows, because the 'think vs do' ratio doesn't leave much room for going off to do something else anyway, except in the pagination and printing processes, which you might want to watch while drinking coffee to see if a operator error crops up that halts the process. And I'm running it (v. 3.0) on a 286. I can imagine that it really screams on a 486.
