Well said, Seth. Here's a quote from Bill Gates that I think can apply to this situation: "I think it's fair to say that personal computers have become the most empowering tool we've ever created. They're tools of communication, they're tools of creativity, and they can be shaped by their user."
By the way, before I started using Quark, I used a program called Bestinfo SuperPage. At THAT time it was the "Cadillac" of page-layout programs. I ran it on an IBM 386 and used XyWrite III as the text-editor. It was so slow, I would start an article import, go to lunch, and maybe it would be ready when I got back.
Not sure if this is directed to me or not, but I, personally, approve of all comments, whether they are positive or negative. I was simply providing my experience and perspective on the subject. I'm sure there are many reasons to disagree and I would agree with a lot of them. But, this is an open forum where we can express our opinions, whether they are right, wrong, valid or not. Thank you.—jm
