I have been also a Cakewalk/Sonar user under windows for a long time, using it's staff view a lot. In both programs I don't use the notation view as a score desktop publishing engine, because a real score editor needs many features that these programs lack. But it may be a very nice representation of MIDI tracks, if you record the MIDI tracks with a metronome, or create it from scratch. It is not that I dislike the piano-roll representations, but I feel much more comfortable with the score for visual inspection of the music. I can locate very quickly where I've made a mistake without having to press the play button. That's because I'm very used to scores, of course.
