I use InDesign to develop my biweekly sci-fi
magazine<http://raygunrevival.com/index.html>,
and was missing some of the Frame-like text handling abilities in CS2 that
were added to CS3. ID gets closer with each new version to being a tool I'd
consider using for day-to-day technical writing in addition to the more
blatant desktop publishing applications.
