Especially the new version of Rosegarden, Rosegarden4 is really stable and
has a decent note resolution, so its been working well with my asrx
sampler. I coould also export the sequences as csound score files and then
re-work the tunes within csound, so I can't imagine finding anything on
windows/mac (unless it gets ported to osx of course).

We have extreemely good tools already. The hard part is learning how to
run a stable machine. You won't find it any different on other OS's. If
you want to let people record two tracks without dropouts, then add some
fx you could do that easily 5 years ago on Linux.
If you want to let people make cutting edge music that blows everyone
away you need to teach them how to play the instrument and then, maybe,
they will come up with something innovative. My experience is one in ten
can sustain real creativity.
The rest of us are doomed to hobbyism and inferiority complexes ;]

Being on stage with the band in front of crowds shouting, "Get off! No!
We want normal music!", I think that was more like acting than anything
I've ever done.
