There was a photo of the screen of FrameMaker in MacLeak about 2 or 3 
months ago.  According to my Frame dealer (Quest Research in Bloomington
MN), the priorities at Frame were release 3.0, X release 3.0, the NeXT
release, Mac release, then maybe a 386 version.  Look for the Mac release
sometime this summer or fall (I hope) at about $995 (an educated guess).

Frame is kind of neat on a Sun, but it requires a lot of CPU horsepower...
