As we know, Quark is finally getting QuarkXPress to run on OS X.



But, they let him live. Thank God. It would have been a major Screw-Up on their side if they killed him.







Alright, they already have screwed up, by being soo incredibly late... but still.

    Yes.



    A short call to the QuarkXPress Media House (Europe, 0041 32 720 1414) revealed the following:



    There is a version of QuarkXPress for Education.



    But you have to apply with a special form. The processing of this form needs 4-5 weeks to go through all the necessary steps.

    (They just look if you're eligible or not)



    Price: 657.- Sfr. or in $ = $499 (instead of $900)



    Added to that are shipping costs and tax.



    So, if you want that Edu version, you better just call Quark.

    this is probably why it took so long for quark 6 to come out. I can see it now: everyone waiting on the guy in the back room to catch up on the osx undercore and figure out how to impliment his multiple key character which has been the only reason he's actually been kept on the team, to delete shish for you.
