When first opening Writer, the cursor flashes in the document page as normal, but does not allow input until the blank page has been "clicked in" first...fixed
The mouse wheel scrolling issues (which I've posted about passim) have been fixed.
I would guess that the other applications are fixed for these as well, making a nice suite even better.
When faced with two choices, simply toss a coin. It works not because it settles the question for you. But because in that brief moment while the coin is in the air. You suddenly know what you are hoping for.

And I don't think x.pub files are in the new "semi-open format", like Word and excel.
I use Publisher for a magazine I do - as it is better at some things than plain Word files - and can't afford the better Adobe program.

Remembered my colleague was running it on a Mac (don't know which though) not too sure why though as I always thought (never having been a Mac user!) that Mac handled DTP far better than Windows anyway. DTP is not a huge issue for me these days, I have lots of Publisher files on disks but no software to run them these days (without buying it) Have downloaded the free Serif Page Plus 9 SE, if it seems worthwhile I may upgrade to the £9.99 version, much depends on how well it handles older Publisher files.

But yes the publishing / graphic design fraternity seem to much prefer them.
