Cakewalk.. I've never really used it, but I know of a couple people who use it who say it's good.

Another one is Midisoft Recording studio (4.0?).. Really really good IMO, but it's been a long time since I've last used it, so I don't know if they still make it anymore.. Very nice and lots of features...

both allow you to see staff notation..
