I will never look at Windows again as soon as I have MacSonar installed!

Same here.  The main reason I was ever on Windows was Sonar.  Totally nothing wrong with Windows, but I do other stuff on the OSX platform.

Jepp! Same here and it came to a point where Windows annoyed me severely for one last time and I sold my PCs and had to consider Sonar a casualty of war. I haven't regretted it once - but I've missed Sonar quite a bit. When I boot up Bootcamp to do something with old Sonar projects, it runs quite well, but Windows still get on my nerves!

LOL, 3rd announcement is just a link to the rolling updates page.
 
what a waste of time refreshing the website just for that.

Maybe the link wasn't correct, I checked and it's not going to the Rolling Updates page. But the details in the Rolling Updates page are pretty interesting. 

The oven is HOT

Ripple Editing is a big deal - Cakewalk wants to end the "delete hole" issues, but if ripple editing is implemented similarly to how it's implemented in Vegas, this will make a big difference in arranging. Take and Comping management will also be welcome, and the plug-in load balancing (basically doing pipelining for the audio engine) will mean being able to load more plug-ins, fewer dropouts, etc.

It takes you to the statement of commitment page which has a link to rolling updates.

Seems I scored - I updated the day Lifetime came out for $149-. A $50 saving is a huge amount in my currency :O)

I was hoping Cakewalk would have bought out Magix and merged Sonar and Vegas Pro. j/k

Whelp.... I hope they are successful with the OSX path! 
 
Sonar X3 (and beyond) has been such a wonderful creation...truly a life saver for me.  Looking forwarded to new and great stuff from CW.
 
That said, this whole marketing "wait until June 1st" thing (for all us Windows-based Sonar users), now feels a bit like finding out that the super-hot blind date we've been looking forward to having sex with, is actually a guy.
 
A really hot guy, but still, a guy.  Ha!
 
Well played, Cakewalk.  Well played.

This is the best post I've every read on ANY forum. Worth the June 1 letdown!! ;-)

No big news for me as I could care less about MAC. I am excited for Cakewalk though. I believe running Sonar on a MAC will expand their user base which means more sales and stability for the company! Go Cakewalk!!

Nothing about Phone Support, or, lack of?...

I'm happy that Cakey is now working on a Mac version... but I have to say they really blew it on the marketing side. 
 
All this buildup for two future changes, and a new way to pay for the product today.
 
I'm happy they did all this, but they just wasted a marketing tool that you can only blow once.
