I have just begun reading the AMiga newsgroup.
I have an ATARI 1040ST .. am considering the Amiga 3000 or the Atari TTx

Music:  I use NOTATOR for the Atari.  While The Copyist is also
available for the ATARI, i can't see spending 1-2 hours per page.
I did close to 300 pages one week for the Pacific Northwest ballet.
Notation and midi-event data are fully integrated.  No file conversion
or program switching is necessary.  

I am reading this newsgroup to find out if anything like NOTATOR
even exists for the AMiga... as i am growing very interested in the
open architecture of the Amiga line and may in fact leave the ATARI world.
