I almost CRIED when I first saw that preference (back when 2.0 was
finally released). Bang zoom, my productivity on ID doubled, and now I
*look* for excuses to use ID instead of Quark 5/Classic (which,
contrary to popular opinion, runs just fine and lightning fast in
Classic!).
I've seen the beta of Q6, and except for one new feature I will call
"multiple-layout sheets" I don't seen anything all that compelling
about it (over it's usual good features) other than the fact that it's
X-native (finally!). If Quark wants to keep their audience, they'll
have to price this upgrade at less than $300, or a lot of shops are
going to finally make the big switch.
