Your anecdote is much better than the article I submitted.

Having gone through all this I definitely appreciated both the article posted as well as the parent comment.
I will add my own anecdote about Quark from that time period. They had a total cocky shitty attitude. This was back at the time when by comparison Apple (iirc) seemed downright friendly to customers. Also users of Quark definitely looked down upon anyone using Pagemaker. Quark (as the posted article mentioned) had a firm lock on the market and was seen as the choice of true artists. (Once again, from my memory).
Not at all! The article dug up some old memories I thought folks might be interested in reading a brain dump of.
actually, i felt the submitted article was the best thing i've read on HN all week. thanks for posting it.
