In my company there are four manuals that have several chapters that are
almost identical. I created four separate book files (one for each
manual), with some of the chapters unique to each book, and some
chapters shared between the four books. In the shared chapters, I use
conditional text for each manual to mark the differences between the
manuals.
One thing I like is that I can condition an entire table as manual A and
manual B (by conditionalizing the table marker), then mark one row as
manual A and a different row as manual B, and the table appears in both
manuals, with the appropriate rows displayed.
Two things I don't like:
1. When I conditionalize a table marker, it's very hard to see the
conditional indicator.
2. When I conditionalize a table row, I can search for the row by search
for that conditional text type. To me, that is a big drawback, and I
often end up conditionalizing the text in the row instead of the table
row, which is more time consuming.

Greetings,
Here at Adobe we're looking for real-world uses of conditional text.
We'd be very interested in a summary of some of the interesting uses out
there, including the condition tags you've defined and the output
desired. We'd also like to hear of any limitations you've encountered in
either Frame 7 or Frame 8.
For example, you might say...
"I work on a doc set that must output to print and to the web in two
different versions, Mac and Windows. We've set up 6 conditions:
WinPrint, WinWeb, WinBoth, MacPrint, MacWeb, and MacBoth."
Many thanks.
