This is basically an opinion survey. Given the choice between an office
environment, including substantial DTP but also including the more
traditional computer science sorts of things, would you choose Xerox
6085s, ATs with Ventura Publisher covering the DTP, or Suns running any
of the "big 4" (PageMaker, Interleaf TPS or WPS, DocuPro, OminPage),
which would you choose and why? (While opinions on the Mac would be
interesting, I'm pretty well locked into one of the 3 mentioned for
other reasons.)
Obviously every situation is different, but I'm curious to see if there
are any perceived generic strengths or weaknesses to any of the above.
Rather than bias the survey, I'll reserve my opinions until the end.
