I know its all great and everythig, and I know that I'm not qualified as I never ever do any layout work, but really, as crap as it is, just stick to Quark Xpress and accept that the big Adobe takeover is not the key to happiness.
On the two occasions I have tried to layout in CS I have found exactly what 5timuli says... of particular frustration is the one about things being changed and just not being saved for some random, bizarre reason. Also, if it gets too much (which it will on a 130 page book) things will just disappear, quietly and without warning. They just drop out of existence. Graphics, images, rules... Adobe software seems to suffer from random and frequent forgetfulness.
Quark, for all its faults, will never let you down like that. Its dull, out of date, but solid as a rock.
