[binaryDigit]

They even took down the Apple Store to announce it. The line forms at the left

i wonder why they took it down, cause Quark Express isn't available in the store..

QuarkXPress 6 ? Let me laugh. Not before late August, if not September.

"Available next week."

I'm done with Quark, I'll use Adobe InDesign thank you very much... Yeah, I've been using that for some time, back when Quark promised to release their OSX version last time.

It doesn't do a company well to have such delays in their product, especially since they have had a beta floating around the net for over six months now.

It pains me to pass up the little guy, especially since their products are usually top notch, but in this case, I'm going with the bigger guy.

You can order Quark 6 from the Apple Store right now.

The funny thing is, many either don't plan to drop the money to upgrade for a long time, or they've already gone to Indesign. I'm sure Quark will sell well, but I doubt QX6 will be the über-1337 program its predecessors were.

It has been released today (check Quark Inc.) but anyone who already had to do with Quark products knows that a crucial debugged version (such as 3.01, 4.1 + FixIt 4.11, 5.01...) comes out a few months after because the original product is so much bulsh!t.

I don't know if the following will work for Quark but here they are anyways:
"Better late than never"
or
"Better late than sorry"



I cannot say anything for InDesign vs XPress other than I know for a fact that many companies still use v3.x of XPress...



EDIT: Thank you Toast!
