I pruduce a semi-weekly sports section for an Oakland newspaper on a IIci, and
while it's fast enough, I wish it were faster. If your friends' publication
will have more than one or two graphics, I'd suggest a quicker machine.
 As for the monitor,  one-page should be enough for a tabloid, but if you're
going with a broadsheet, you really need a two-page.
 Now for the big question. I've found it doesn't make that much of a
difference. I learned PageMaker first, so it makes more sense to me and that's
what I (happily) use. I also learned a bit of QuarkXpress, and am not that
comfortable with it.
My colleagues who learned QuarkXpress first like it better than PageMaker, and
vice-versa.
I'd reccomend PageMaker because it's less complicated and has a better story
editor.
