Just my two cents worth.
Move RoboHelp up on your list and PageMaker down. While what you say is true
regarding help authoring, RoboHelp (or some other HAT) is everywhere and
probably the #2 tool for working tech writers. Especially since software
documentation is such a fast growing field within our profession. PageMaker,
on the other hand, is a desktop publishing tool and rarely used by tech
writers.
That's just my opinion.
