Finale 2009 Now Shipped

WHEN DOES THE UPDATED VERSION COME OUT? THE FINALE STORE SAYS NEXT WEEK BUT ACADEMICSUPERSTORE.COM ALL READY HAS IT IN STOCK.

IT LOOKS LIKE IT WILL BE AVAILABLE THE NEXT FEW DAYS ON MOST SITES; ON AMAZON IT BECOMES AVAILABLE TOMORROW, AND IT WILL BE AVAILABLE FROM MAKEMUSIC AROUND THE 21st I BELIEVE. I DON'T THINK THAT ACADEMICSUPERSTORE ACTUALLY HAS IT IN STOCK YET.

THE BETTER QUESTION IS: WHY THE HELL IS IT NECESSARY TO TYPE IN ALL CAPS? ON TEH INTERNETS, THAT IS CONSIDERED SHOUTING!!!!

Just hold your frackling ponies. It comes out when it comes out. Go to Finale's website and pre-order a copy if you are so eager.

I'm quite happy with my 2006

I like my 2007. It works. I generally update about every two years, but that's getting harder. I'll probably update to 2010 when it comes out.

I have 2008. I think I'll go with Pang's suggestion and wait for 2010. I've already spent money on Finale already...

that wasn't redundant at all was it redundant?

I was just irritated and confused. (gosh!)

I pre-ordered Finale 2009 because 2008 was horrible.

I'm curious what exactly makes you say that 2008 was "horrible".

It worked perfectly fine for me, made great recordings, printed out lovely scores, never crashed, stable as could be. That's all pretty much non-horrible, in my eyes.

It glitched a ton for me, I had to restart my computer, let alone finale to get it to work, and it was difficult for me to work with it in general because it was so slow. This is probably my computer, but with 2006 I didn't have these problems, so...I don't know I guess my computer didn't like 2008. I'm sorry for generalizing it as "terrible" i just meant I had a bad experience with it.
