[PD] Pd vs. MAX

[Pall Thayer]

I converted from Max to PD a couple of years ago. PD runs on any modern OS, 
it's free and the support is impeccable. Why anyone would continue to use Max 
is beyond me at this point. I think the only thing I missed was being able to 
create pretty, stand-alone applications but I got over that a long time ago.
