does Passport stick you with a dongle?

We have 14 macs using Quark and they all need a dongle. On the mainland of Europe you can only buy Passport. We didn't even know there was a non-Passport version, until we met an english customer who couldn't read our files because they were multilanguage.

So yes, Quark Passport sticks you with a dongle.
 
ooohhh...

hehe... that does suck!

I suspect that next year will see the resurgence of QuarkXpress... that is if they get their sh*t together in the first quarter of 2003. If the new IBM PPC powered macs come out around MWNY then there could be a real surge in sales for both Apple and Quark in the second half of the year.

It's one thing for a freelancer or single person studio to switch... but it's a much different thing to get an entire agency or publication to switch.

Dongle FREE in NYC.

But when I read your post, at first, for a second I thought you were serious.

You'd be suprised.

I have GOT to get some sleep.

The advert is quite funny though....... everything in it is 'Ok'............ A very good advertisement for progression and evolution me thinks..... :D

I am in education, and we were always only allowed to buy QXP Passport as well. But the last order form I have seen , and reading an FAQ on quark.com it looks like there will no longer be a dongle version for QXP lab pack or Passport. I think. Let's hope so.

The dongle idea is dumb. As sson as one walks off, BAM, $300 US.
