Yup, Quark started on the Mac - but it sucked over there too - just a 
poorly written app.  InDesign finally got Quark to rewrite and clean up 
many of their issues, but it may be too late - the momentum seems to be 
clearly in Adobe's favor at this point.  Those who have moved to the newer 
versions of Quark seem pretty happy with it.
