HELP NEEDED:

I am researching the Macintosh to use as a desktop publishing tool for
the company I was recently hired at.  We write technical manuals, eg
firmware instruction/protocol, board instalations, programming
manuals...

Currently work is being done solely using PC MSWORD (sometimes a
little help from Ventura) Yes, it's a horrible thing to work with.
Pictures and drawings are artist produced and physically (scissors and
tape) patched into the document.

We are looking at Suns and Mac II's.  We have been dissappointed in
the Sun software/hardware performance for the price.  I have earned
the opportunity to lease a Mac II for a couple of weeks w/rented
software to enable me to review it.

I am soliciting for suggestions on the BEST (oh-boy, here it comes)
packages in word processing, pagelayout, draw program and
monitor(paperwhite or color).  An integrated and powerful combination 
wp/layout (like Frame on SUN, but more wp power)is the ideal, if one
exists, but a MSWord/Pagemaker solution is still OK. (Not great, but OK)

Important wordprocessing features to us are Revision Marks, style
sheets and real WYSIWYG.

Much thanks in advance...
