Hi, SCync--
Actually, Expression is now called Expression Graphic Designer; Expression has been adopted by Mother MS as an umbrella for the whole suite: Sparkle (the Flash condendor), et al.
I'm with you on the Win-only issue; fortunately, with the new Apple OS for the MacIntel chip--and the hacks to get the Apple OS to run on a PC, pretty soon the point will be moot about OSes. I'm twirked that MS took out the Adobe plug-in feature in the January Community Technology Preview ("beta" in other words 8}).
But with the additional capabilities now, Graphic Designer seems destined to become the Corel Painter of vector apps; it won't replace Xara or Illustrator, but instead makes a welcome companion. I played between vector and bitmap mode a little here--I really like the capability to define vector patterns.
My Best,
Gare
