I'd second all of Robert's comments except the last one about FM going
downhill.
FM 11 is solid, fast, and enhances or adds important new or missing
features. It's likely to be one of the "keeper" releases.
But if you are a small shop that does mostly online help or other online
deliverables, Flare's workable, but in larger departments or for a wider
variety of media, it's more borderline.
