Not too sure about this. I use Microsoft Word and also Corel Draw. Ideally, i was looking for a program which merged the text possibilities of Word, with the graphical capabilities of Corel. Indesign didnt satisfy my needs for this. I still find Word the best program for word processing, and Corel for simple graphical/ text layouts. If i ever need to compose a graphical/ text document of more than a few pages, I find a blend of Corel and Word. Also, distributing adobe files maybe difficult, due to the lack of users out there, but the conversion to pdf is a great advantage. Difficult to justify the £650 in my opinion.

Except for a new box, a new tool bar and a few templates, Adobe has not really brought anything new to their dying DTP package. Pagemaker was first created by Aldus in the early eighties when DTP was born on Macs. It then got bought by Adobe which surely developped it further but it finally lost its battle against Quark Xpress. Don't get me wrong, Pagemaker 6.52 is great, but the Plus version is a con-trick for sure...Adobe just tried to extend its life for a few extra months before the release of InDesign 1.0 I think that you can now upgrade for quite a good price from PM 6.5 + to InDesign...hopefully!
