I am interested in desktop publishing on the Mac.  I use Quark XPress with an
HP DeskWriter, and I am very pleased with it, but I would like to see
comparisons and/or discussions on the various DTP packages for the Mac (e.g.,
Quark XPress, PageMaker, ReadySetGo, etc.), features, pros and cons, any
anomalies in their operation, bug workarounds, etc.

First, is there a Mac DTP notes group that I just don't know about?

Second, if the answer to the above is "no," is there enough interest among
users to justify the creation of a comp.sys.mac.dtp group?  It seems to me that
with the growth in DTP recently, perhaps its time has come.

What do you think?
