I admit that I haven't seen Notator, so I don't know how it compares to that. What is it about Notator that makes it special? It's really surprising how much stuff is out there (and I believe the Amazing computing list is highly incomplete, large tho it may be, having seen some pieces of software which weren't mentioned, but were around for a long time before…) for the Amiga. There's a lot of things which are only barely advertised if at all. I thought the education area was pretty dry on the Amiga until a friend of mine (also an educator) asked me about the Amiga, showing me a huge catalog of educational software from some company, with a heading indicating that all the software was available for Apple II's, C-64s, IBM PCs, Macs, and Amigas. Apparently it was all written in BASIC and ported easily. Must have been at least 500 titles listed. –>Steve Bennett
