Hey Framers,
What about InDesign on Mac? I'm planning on purchasing a new mac laptop
and am interested in people using
InDesign on a Mac. Are you noticing any problems?

I am running Frame on a MacBook Pro, using Parallels instead of Boot
Camp. Parallels lets me open a Windows window on the Mac, and run
Frame in that. I did have to cross-grade my OS 9 version of Frame to
a windows version.
It works fairly well - the file structure is shared, and I treat
Frame like any other application. It's a little slow, and there are
some cut and paste oddities between the systems, but since I needed a
new Mac, this was about the only choice.
Until we get an OS X version of Frame, I can live with this.
