2 cents from a native Dutchman :-)...  I was always taught it should 
be "here come P and M" (just as it's "P & M come to the party"), and 
'comes' definitely sounds wrong to me.  Now I'm not a native speaker 
at all (so I should up, I guess :), but I would dare bet a month's 
salary that it's "come" instead of "comes".

And maybe this should be about "here come Logic 7 and the EXS mkIII", 
to get a bit less off-topic...
