I don't post much in this forum unless I have a specific issue, however thought to submit a general note that overall, I'm extremely satisfied with the state of affairs in Sonar lately. 
 
I'm loving the monthly updates, I unexpectedly find myself looking forward to them every month.  I particularly like the new UI theme in the latest update.  I didn't realize how much I like it until I switched back to the original grey theme and it actually hurt my eyes, so I immediately switched back.  While stability and functionality are crucial, aesthetics are nice as well. 
 
Also, for me, Platinum is far more stable than previous versions - I have very few issues lately.
 
Overall, things are quite good.  Kudos to CW.

I couldn't agree more.  It's the best DAW I've ever used, and I've used a lot, starting with one most of you have likely never heard of called Musicator, then Acid (various versions), then Adobe Audition, then Reaper, a few other small ones in there as well...Sonar has not only been the most rock solid one, but has all the features that I liked from all the various DAWs I've tried all wrapped up in one package.  

...was just commenting on another post concerning this subject...I will also salute the Bakers!
