Final Draft 7 Professional Scriptwriting Win/Mac 80 reviews
Windows, Macintosh, Mac OS X | Final Draft, 2004
Final Draft
+ Wish I had More Time
+ Much better than no software at all
I started using Final Draft7 immediately. The instructions were simple; the tutorial was practical and effective. I was able to begin the work on my screenplay in a short period of time. It is easy to use. I did my outline in WORD and wish I'd had Final Draft from the beginning.

From soup to nuts--an excellent primer & reference

Eight-hundred pages divided by thirty bucks is less than 4 cents a page, and it's a rare page that doesn't return its value many times over in this top-notch tour through every major (and many minor) aspect(s) of the filmmaking process. The breadth of Denise Ohio's knowledge is astonishing--she's ...

Awesome so far. Great power management abilities...
I've seen that LaCie's often get harsh reviews from failures. I've never had one fail on me, and I use external drives a lot! Look, if a drive fails, it fails. I had a Maxtor just die and it hardly had any use. I suspect it was the i/o that died (firewire, usb board) and not the disk itself. ...
