I emphatically agree. I've switched and will not look back. Not only is it as good -- perhaps better is some ways and not as good in others but definitely competitive -- it handles 2-byte fonts perfectly. Japanese, Korean, etc. -- with InDesign and OS X, one product handles all languages. With Quark, you have to buy another copy for each new language, at a premium price. Additionally, I think Adobe treats its customers better. I sense a market shift that is gaining momentum.
