I tried it, bought it and now am pushing it at my other writing mates. I've already been able to perform major surgery on my NaNoWriMo novel from last year. The visual outline (notecards) are a huge help, and I love being able to embed notes, links, graphics, etc. into one portfolio instead of having to have my browser, my PDF reader, etc., all sharing desktop real estate.

As for your second question: there is a full featured trial mode that runs for 30 days before you need to pay. It is indeed only for Mac.

Sounds like an awesome program, but my infrequent experience w/ Mac has left me loathing it. I'll have to dig up a friend w/ a Mac to try the program out and see if it's worth the ultimate conversion, which I'm sure certain people think it is :D Wow, took me forever to figure out what this was about- I’m slow like that and perhaps for good reason.

I would really like to able to control where new documents open in split screen for example (either in the one with attention, or in the one without). And I also would really like to be able to "clip" out of a larger article in order to make a new notecard (I use Scrivener for research papers mostly). But I still recommend the program very highly. Two reasons. One, the community does listen when you have a suggestion. Two, the programmer uses the program and has every interest in making in better. The program already is a good 4 out of 5 stars, I can only imagine it getting better, and I can only imagine that happening quickly. So I look forward to following this program through it's development. Bottom line, buy it, buy it now. It will only get better. Frankly, the program can use a little work.

I can certainly see how useful it is for purely creative writing storybording etc. I started using it for my upper level biology term papers. The best features would be its ability to Juggle 20+ PDF journal articles on my a 14" ibook. It can also keep track all the little bits of typing with each. Not only are they easy to flip through quickly, everything then gets stored away nicely in one tight package. The full screen mode and polished flexible interface are certainly perks. Amazing find!

So I become frustrated with the idea of useing it, because I don't like having 'useless' programs on my mechine. Here is a program that offers quite a few options that I would love to have. Plus there are features that I am sure I would not have to learn to live with like some others, but would love to learn how usefull it really is. Alas such usefull software is beyond my platforms reach. A platform that I have become chained to because of everything other then professional need. I am, now and for the future to come, that little boy stuck inside looking out.
