    the UI is still not as polished as Quarks

    Maybe, maybe not, but the font output and paragraph rendering are miles ahead, and that counts far more for me.

    However, as an early adopter of InDesign, this new pricing structure does nothing for me. Thank God for TeX (and no, I don't design magazines, I do books.)

    No, the quotation was a response to a forum question, but answered by Baron Arnold, a former Be, Inc., employee.

    Gistics, for one. But for a simpler survey, just look at Google Zeitgeist.

    But that's the point, all that does is report what the browser said it was. Since there is enormous pressure to use IE, there is pressure to pretend you are. I'm not saying I like to do it, or that I do it often (I switch when I need to use one of those sites, then immediately switch it back).

    Stop doing that. Use sites that support your browser of choice instead.

    Yes, sir. Whatever you say. Now excuse me while I get back to the real world. FWIW, I do most of my surfing on my Mac, using OmniWeb or Safari. Safari tends to leak memory too much right now, though.

    90+% of all web browsing is IE on Windows

    I'd still like to know where this figure comes from. When I browse from Windows, I usually use Netscape or Opera, but frequently I have to masquerade as IE to get into sites. Thus, I 'count' as IE, but in reality, I'm not.

    There has to be a better way to gain accurate statistics for this usage.
