True only if the purchaser wants to use Sibelius 7, the last machine-language
release of this program, which runs only on the European "Acorn" platform.

However, Sibelius has released a new version of the program for the windows
95/NT platform, which went on sale in the UK a few weeks ago and in the USA
this week. For more official information, check the Sibelius website at:

http://www.sibelius.com

There is also extensive on-going discussion of notation software on the
composition newsgroup:
