Celtx vs. Final Draft?

The answer :

If you're getting paid for the screenplay... Final Draft
If you're not... Celtx
 
The one thing I hate about Final Draft is that it doesn't smooth the fonts. Celtx is much easier on the eyes.
 
We started using celtx on the feature I'm working on, and it immediately became clear that is it simply is not usable.

It cannot merge changes made by two or more users to the same project. Which renders it useless as a collaboration tool.

So is there anything else out there that people know of that basically has Celtx features, and can act as a sort of online project management/script/breakdown tool that multiple people can use at the same time? So that my art dept, and my efx dept can all be working on the same project, uploading images, tagging the script, etc., and have all of their changes merged automatically so that everyone can see them?

I even tried using subvesion with celtx, but unfortunately, there are no good user tools for subversion right now. You kind of have to be a software developer to use it...So not handy for movie folks...

I like Celtx, but it hurts my eyes so I can't use it for long. Developers are unfriendly towards other developers.
