The local twice-weekly paper (I like to call "The Poor Valley
Astonisher") still use Macs for their display ads and Pagemaker pages.
They don't know why, they just know that if they suddenly switched to
PC, there'd be mass confusion. So rather than change, for over fourteen
years now they've been replacing their Macs with Macs. For the office
work, they use PC's. Without exception, all the Mac users say they wish
they could have a PC.
I've tried to convince them there'd be a short learning period and then
they'd never look back. But they're scared to death that they'd miss an
issue. sigh...
