Pure practicality. When software catches up to publishing, I will. I'm not going to spend a bunch of money on Quark, Photoshop, Acrobat, etc. upgrades for use in the real world. Neither is my publishing employer until we have to replace all of our numerous Macs. I actually kept 8.6 on my other iMac because it's so stable. It is becoming obsolete for some stuff. Also, until the most recent version of OS X came out, it was a headache. This isn't just about home use, iLife, etc. There are some outstanding uses and features in OS 10.x.x., but it just isn't practical (including dollarwise) for me. I actually still use much older Macs for writing and editing, too.


why not?
