I agree with Chris. I will add that now a days installing a Linux flavour is really easy, and personally Rosegarden (plus some other software) together with the improved easiness of installing Linux was the motive for me to get back to it and eventually switch, after hard times trying to get it to work at the end of the 1990s. That's to say I would stick and focus to Linux, and who knows this may attract other users. My two cents.
