I agree with you but partially. Blind hero-worship is not going to get FOSS anywhere. BUT, I think you're mistaken. You run a printing press, thats cool but Dr.Nagarjuna's PhD student (forgot her name) gave an excellent presentation on LaTeX. It'll beat the crap out of any software. Do correct me if I am wrong. I did keep away from this thread because I am neither an expert in Photoshop/Pagemaker/Corel Draw or their equivalents in Linux. -- Regards, Dinesh A.
