Windows 7 ...
It is MUCH better than OSX.

Each has its charms I'm sure.

I have found that W7 sucks for me and so have replaced all my Windows disabled devices with Linux in just a few of its glorious flavours, but you like W7 so good on ya.

You may think that OS X is the inferior of the two OS you mention, but how many Macs do you run? I still have old G3 G4 and G5 machines that run as they were designed to do with nary a glitch, and four Intel Macs that purr along 24/7 apart from one recent MacBook Pro that hates Mavericks, but who likes Mavericks? Propellerheads ReBirth still boots flawlessly on my pre OS X G3 lime and blueberry 350/450 Mhz CRT iMacs, and Pianoteq 4.5 rocks on the dual 2.5 G5 tower o power ... not sure how Pianoteq 5 will fare, may finally need to lower the rate and engage multi core processing.

See ya on the KorgForums ED, you rock.

First buyers have option to choose one from 3 different free packs, one pack with D4 with K2, other pack with Electric pianos R2, W1 and CL1 clavinet, and one pack with percursion add on (Xilo, vibes and marimba).

Users that have v4.5 stage/standart or older, and upgrade to pro or from Stage to Standart, get upgrade to V5 automatically.

I noticed a error in the website, as then price for YC5 showed on screen it's 389 dollars.

It seems that the K2 will not be included with Pianoteq 5 for users who are buying it for the first time, while users who already had K1 will be upgraded.

Adding my "upgrade story" to the list.
- I bought Pianoteq Play (now Stage) at version 3.
- I got a free upgrade to v4.
- Recently, I bought the upgrade from v4 Stage to v4 Standard.
- Buying an upgrade apparently counts toward getting a free upgrade to a major version, as I've now gotten the v5 upgrade for free.
- Before v5 was released, I had bought the YC5, U4, and electric pianos. I already had the K1, of course, which was included as standard.
- Now that v5 is here, the YC5 has been updated (the preset list is different), and I got the K2 for free, presumably because I had the K1 already.

It seems that the K2 will not be included with Pianoteq 5 for users who are buying it for the first time, while users who already had K1 will be upgraded.

Hmmm, seems you need the Pro version to enable virtual desktops?
EDIT: Nope, works in private usage version as well. Great!

Worth every penny though.

Well, I'm not on a laptop so I don't swipe my fingers anywhere. I do assume that some of those apps might be updated for W8.1 and multitouch control at some point - just the matter of time.

Anyways - back to the topic, I agree!

Congratulations. Me not either. Not on OSX - nor on Windows.
So lets get back to the shiny new Pianoteq5
