Hi Dean,
Nearly $1700 with an academic discount. There are refurbished ones
on Apple's site from time to time for a few dollars less, and they
sometimes turn up on ebay and usually go for $1400 - 1500. I thought
I was just indulging myself, because visitors to my studio admired my
24" Samsung (now looking for a home), and I thought this would just
be a luxury. However, like computer speed, it only takes a couple of
minutes to get used to the improvement. Not only better size, but
also excellent resolution. I am working more quickly as a result. A
big band score is visible in full size, and page layout for parts is
larger than the printed page. Even seeing the page layout at 100%
lets things slip by (on the screen) that you notice in print, but
seeing things on the screen at something like 135% improves the
chances (considerably) of catching errors before printing.
There's lots to recommend this, assuming you have the $. Samsung
also makes a 30" for about $1300. I haven't seen it, but I was happy
with the 24 until I made the switch. Apple displays may be
overpriced for some applications, but design people love them.

Darcy,
If I understand this message, it works if installed in the root
level font library. Whew!
I am still waiting for MM to declare 10.5 compatibility.
OT - just got an Apple 30" display. It is a sight for old eyes!
Highly recommended (though pricey, for sure).

Hi all,
I figured it out -- for some reason, this font does not work
correctly when it is installed just for my user (i.e., in ~/
Library/Fonts). Moving it to Library/Fonts (which is actually
where I'd intended to install it in the first place) solved the
problem.
Cheers,

Hey all,
After upgrading to OS X Leopard (10.5) on the weekend, I now
discover that Bill Duncan's Articulations font is apparently not
compatible with Leopard. The characters show up fine on screen
(or at least, most of them do -- some characters display
incorrectly when the zoom is 91% or smaller), but they do not
print at all.
Is anyone else seeing this?
Does anyone have a solution? Obviously, this is a huge problem
for me, as a significant number of my files use this font.
Cheers,
- Darcy
