Does anyone out there have experience of using SCREENWRITING SOFTWARE, e.g. FINAL DRAFT or MOVIE MAGIC SCREENWRITER?

Hi everyone! Forgive me for going completely off the topic of stocks and shares, but I wonder if anyone out there can help me. I am busy writing a couple of screenplays (in MS Word, albeit assisted by some macros I designed myself to help with the formatting) and am fast getting to the point where I need proper screenwriting software in order to stay on top of all of the revisions and corrections.
I have read a lot of negative feedback about bugs on Final Draft 7.0. Can anybody advise whether the latest incarnation, FD7.13, has dealt with the problems?
Or does anybody know anything about Movie Magic Screenwriter 6? This seems to be a very good package and now claims to rival FD in terms of its acceptance as the industry standard. MMS6 may be the one I go for in the end, but am I overlooking anything?
I haven't yet had a chance to check out the free online demos (which admittedly only give one a short window of opportunity in which to try them) and will do so shortly, but it would still be interesting to see what seasoned users make of the software in the long term.
