Quark recognizes that some customers have chosen to adopt InDesign instead of staying with Quark in OS 9 or using the Classic environment in Mac OS X. Turpin said the reasons for staying with Quark come down to business decisions.

Quark has a flotilla of content management and collaboration products already on the market, as well as hooks into e-commerce store management, and personalized electronic document delivery.

Based on the cheesy Sci-fi movie of the same name, the TV series starred Gregory Harrison (later 'Trapper John, MD') as a young man on the run from an overcrowded, futuristic society dictating that everyone must die when they reach the age of thirty (as opposed to just becoming irrelevant, as it is today).

 mediabistro.com: Bulletin Board: Beginner Issues: Topic: Quark
Guess I'm just curious because Quark is a page layout program and in my experience, copy chages are made typically in a word doc and that is imported into the page layout (Quark or InDesign)by a production person, not an editor.
In QPS (Quark Publishing System...which is different from QuarkXPress) there is the ability for editors to make type only changes which won't affect the design of the page.
Quark seems to be on its way out at most magazines--the magazine I work for switched to InDesign six months ago.
