Most professional designers and design firms have dumped Quark in favor of InDesign. I work with some of the biggest ad firms in the country, and most of them have made the jump. Quark is outdated, expensive, bloated and hateful of it's users. What company is as evil as quark? They still don't have a Mac OS X version shipping. They don't even have an estimated ship date for a Mac OS X version. OS X has been around for what those of us in the industry consider a "long time." Quark is a joke. It's the *PC* of the desktop publishing world. For years they have had their way with their users. Mainly because there was no alternative. With the advent of InDesign2 people now have a choice, and Quark now has a viable competitor. I hate monopolies, and do not support them by buying their products. -- ============================================================== Kyle H.
