Well, makemusic does as much. Remember the finale release where they
touted having the copyright sign as a new feature? Finale 2006 or
something?
I believe that is what Henry was referring to. The memory thing in
6.1. I couldn't come up with anything else from Sibelius.com that
would fit what he was describing....

And 4GBs is sufficient and 3GBs is not?
The extra GB of available memory space may or may not get you enough
headroom for easy work with a particular large ensemble played via
Garritan. But what if you add ten instruments? Eventually, you're
going to hit the limit again.
The question is not how much RAM Finale/Sibelius uses, but how sell
your Garritan instruments player uses memory, since that's what's
serving Finale/Sibelius for the processing of the sounds.
This is a really, really minor feature, and one that's likely to be
available with every Windows app once Windows 7 becomes the target
distribution platform (which it will within the next couple of
years).
There's a very small population of users for whom this is relevant:
1. users of Garritan with large scores.
2. who are running on Windows 7.
This is something for the Sibelius folks to bury in the checklist of
nice features, and advantage they'll have for about a year.
It's not a Finale-killer, as Henry characterised it, seems to me.
(and, of course, I'm working on the assumption that you've correctly
identified and described the feature that Henry was referring to)
