Late into this debate I know....
but my 2 cents are:
Quark is, well was, wonderfully robust and brilliant for speedy page layout. It's text rendering engine was always the best. I used to love it until I upgraded to OSX and had to switch to InDesign. I hated it at first, all those palettes and stuff, and still prefer the way Quark works and it's sheer simplicity. But now I couldn't live without InDesign. The integration with the rest of the Creative Suite is brilliant and the text rendering engine, whilst not as good as Quark's, is getting better all the time. But the real winning point of InDesign is PDF. Quark dropped the ball there. PDFs from InDesign are so quick and painless and yet from Quark, nothing but a pain. Plus of course InDesign is a fraction of the price. I'd got for InDesign, Quark is dead.
