I'm not ditching anything. I personally enjoy using both OS X and XP.  
Both systems are also needed for what I do for a living so nothing  
forces me to "switch" either way.

Yes, that's a tempting option. I understand you are very experienced  
with Max/MSP, but doesn't it take an awful lot of time to learn the  
beast? I've kept the max manual and tutorials on my powerbook for  
about two years, but what's keeping me from starting the migration  
process to Max is time. Projects and deadlines are coming up all the  
time and there's not much time for "non productive" learning periods.  
Besides, today I'm getting the impression that before I would have  
learned to mock things up the way I want in Max the same, but faster,  
tools would be available by Numerology and Apple or XP/Möbius+  Am I  
totally off focus here?

What is MaxPlay? I scanned Cycling75's web but couldn't find a clue.

(OT:)
A web search gave:
- "MaXplay Toys for the Garden, The best for your child in outdoor  
play".
- "MaxPlay Classic Games Volume 1"
