[PD] max msp vs pd

Another reason for pd is the license and that it runs on a free os.
This is interesting when you do art installations and dont want to buy a 
os license for each box like windows (yuck) or worse, buy a propritary 
box and os license like Mac OSX. Plus you don't need to fiddle around 
with dongles or response code registry stuff to install it. This can be 
important when your patch misbehaves on location and you need to edit it 
although your available computers already had ran through the whole Max 
demo period. PD feels better in such situations...
