I have
just read some of the great capabilities of the new Logos 4.0b.  Like prayer
list, import and highlighting functions.  This all sounds great!  

Questions:
 

1. When
I read about the PC based improvements can I assume that the Mac based platform
will have the same capability?  

2. Will
the PC and the Mac platforms eventually look and perform the same?

With the
PC version sporting more bells and whistles and then a substantial upgrade it
really is frustrating to us Mac users. Or let me say to this Mac user.  It
just doesn't seem right.  It is your company and you have the right to
assign resources as you see fit.  I just wish you would assign more help
to the Mac development team.

    As far as I am aware the plan is not to have two identical applications but to equivalent applications. That is to say, the Mac version will look and act like a Mac app with Menu Bar, etc. and the PC app will look and act like a Windows app, but they will have the same capabilities and functions. It's just that they will be accessed and used according how their GUI is set up to work. (That is why there will be a need for different videos for PC and Mac users.)

    It appears to me that some new functions in L4.0b are already appearing in the L4Mac Alpha. [:)]

    Kudos to Logos for Mac efforts.  Also have experienced PC functionality being exposed for use on Mac with newer Alpha releases - looking forward to more Alphas, Betas, Release Candidates, etc in appropriate time.  Seems frustration like beauty in eye of beholder - trying many items in various Mac Alpha and PC Beta releases leading to more in depth understanding of Logos 4 capabilities (and sluggishness: e.g. media searching).  Excited by cross platform future.
