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. ---------------------------------------- Submissions to: desktop%plaid@sun.com -OR- sun!plaid!desktop Administrivia to: desktop-request%plaid@sun.com -OR- sun!plaid!desktop-request Paths: {ihnp4,decwrl,hplabs,seismo,ucbvax}!15:d
