This is getting funnier ..... :)
A few years back I was more into 3D and at that time Softimage 3D was a great package and there was not much coming close. When we were at a trade show all the people coming over to just tell us that their 3D package (no matter what it was) was better than Softimage. My colleague told me that it is indeed funny, but nobody would ever say that he had just spend a lot of money on a crappy program so they need to insist on it - totally human .... These discussions always remind me on that :)
I use both - Logic Pro and DP, and it is not too long that I also used Cubase SX3.
Statements like DP compared to Logic or Cubase is too slow - well, it may depend on your workflow, on the task and on your setup. My experience is - that for CPU performance Logic is king, Cubase was only performing ok if I took precautions (which is somehow understandable as it has a stripped down nuendo-engine and thus I think it is more layed out to run on a computer that was expecially set up for it). It is also clear that working with VIs DP 5.x cannot come close to Logic ....
On the other hand - editing audio DP 5 outperforms Logic and also if I want to just view some scores from a MIDI file DP is ways faster. There are numberous examples where one outperforms the other and where one package has features that the other does not have. I think one is best off with having both of them. (and when apple finally gets their pro - I once thought that was for professional - app to read and write 32bit float, they will be an even better team.)
I like both of them - looking forward to receive DP6.
