I spoke with A.R. about a year ago and they said that their system
was solely for in-house use and not for sale.  And, they said, if 
there were to make it available, it would be VERY expensive.
A-R is in the music publishing business and obviously they dont want
to give it away!

However, it is a shame that there isnt something as powerful as
FINALE or SCORE available on unix/x-windows workstations.  
But the marketplace runs the show, I guess.
