From C-Net News.com

The new QuarkXPress requires version 10.2 of OS X or later, although a few features actually require later versions of the Mac operating system.
What does that mean? What later version of the Mac operating system? Are there 10.3 only features? The article adds no further explanation.

C-net is retarted. Maybe they mean 10.2.x releases?

Well, even between 10.2.x releases things got changed and fixed. For example, some Control Manager calls didn't work with HIView stuff at all. You could not call CreatePushButtonControl() with a NULL WindowRef on early 10.2.x versions, but somewhere along the line Apple fixed it. This was crucial to us with OpenOffice.org. Small things like this, that are important but didn't make the cut or weren't known initially are probably what C|Net is talking about.

But then again, it is C|Net and I wouldn't put it past them to be pulling this from you-know-where.

C-Net's smoking the C-Rack. Apple.com lists the system requirements solely as 10.2.

Some other Quark-related thread here as requiring 10.2.7... I think.
