    Quark's website lists the following as one of the new features: Multiple Undos. Multiple Undos. Hello. It's 2003 and we just added multiple undos. Did any of you actually make the Quark upgrade from 4 to 5? IMO, the *worst* "upgrade" since Kings Quest VI (and yes, I think that's a fair comparison). The just *didn't* code in multiple undos. I guess it just wasn't a high enough priority (Nor was OS X compatibilty, or image support other than TIFF, EPS and PDF (Why PDF?), or in-line image support, or automatic column separator lines, or... stop me now, please.) The fact is that anyone who used InDesign for longer than two weeks would burn every copy of Quark Xpress they owned and never look back. --JasdonLe
