Thanksgiving
Today is Thanksgiving Day in the United States of America. As a day to focus on giving thanks for whatever blessings surround each of us, I extend a heartfelt Thank You to the product managers and engineers at Quark for turning the company around and continuing the innovation that keeps QuarkXPress at the forefront of design tools for publishers, marketers, designers, and other communications professionals.
Another Big Thanks goes out to Aldus, Altsys, Macromedia, FutureWave, Corel, Adobe, Microsoft, and all the hundreds of other smaller companies that helped advance the quality of our tools. Through innovation, persistence and acquisition, you all have created the competition that drives the industry and makes what I’m doing right now possible.
