Oh boy oh boy oh boy.  Big questions.

Layout manager -- who knows?  It's a sure goin' to be interestin, tho.

PageMaker 4.0 -- no such beastie; PageMaker Professional is coming soon (maybe
November, I hear) w/ color extensions included, integrated spellcheck/search-
and-replace, text and object rotation, an endless array of fun stuff; keep
those eyes open.

Other software; Letraset's DesignStudio (RSG! 5.0) is scheduled for release
soon (Seybold?) and its got loads of fun features; color stuff, rotation,
incredible text handling, tracking graphs, "annexes" (equivalent of Quark
Xtensions), drag/spec graphic sizing, the whole bit.  Also, ColorStudio
is going to blow the roof off of Mac image proc and retouching software;
the only problem is that its *too big*, too many features -- still, it'll
do until Lumena comes along.

Of course, we have ATM, 7.0's font technology, Interleaf's price reductions...
I don't see why you think there's nothing to talk about. :->
