Jfreak - thanks for the welcome and input. I understand what you mean about the cross platform bit, but now that I've had experience on a PC, it's more than evident that Avid develop for Mac and then port it across for PC. It just isn't as slick. eg. conflicts with the ALT key with Tabbing. This is just one of many grubby things about the PC interface.
What I suppose my initial question is more about, is that if they'll develop for PC and then port across to Mac. Obviously the S6 M40 has a PC inside, so they're developing more in that area now anyway.

That said, the more people that are responding here is giving me ammunition in the good fight!

Cheers.
