Sorry Quark, looks like Adobe InDesign already sealed your fate...

In the professional services and service bureau industries, it is by far still the winner. It may have lost a little ground to Adobe, but their products are a distant second.

Quark has started to suck majorly many versions ago, its overpriced and a piece of junk anymore in publishing... yes I know its still a majority standard, but its crap...

Quark sucks -- why bother trying to save the company?

Quark should've picked Rom... he's been wanting to own that bar for years, I think he deserves it by now.

Yes, very true. Poor Rom.

Check your history. England was conquered by the French in 1066 and French became the language of the aristocracy, law etc. That explains the 50%-ish contribution of French to modern English.

The English were not conquered by the French, they just figured it was frog migration (a.k.a. tourist) season. Here is a good link to French military results.
