Heck if they put everything in there, our little board would be left to 
only yacking about rumors of Apple updates... grin.

Yes, i've left Quark behind for InDesign. i started getting really 
annoyed somewhere between versions 4 and 5. InDesign was great as the 
alternative was a combination of PageMaker/FrameMaker. ID has come a 
very long way in a short time and Adobe seems to be very committed to 
this software. I think you will like ID. (Just so you can transition 
easily, ID will let you set all of the Q keyboard shortcuts for use in 
ID).

MX is a good package, my only concern is that M$ will try to buy them 
out (there is a real possibility this could happen as it would put M$ 
in a strong strategic position by doing so). So far, they have resisted 
the overtures from the Dark Side, but if Adobe pushes GoLive, etc. into 
Apple's hands it could happen.
