I found a demo of Finale for the PC, but haven't spent enough time to
see if it will do everything Sibelius does - I really like sibelius!
Sibelius does have educational pricing which brings it down to $250US,
and my wife is going back to college this Fall.
I would not mind paying a lot less for something that would do the job,
I just haven't found anything that appeals to me as much.
The Korg works great with Sibelius too, as does my scanner with the
scanning software they provide.

Enjoy,
