Abstract: The fact that TEX is already quite old, does not change the fact that it can still pretty well compete with high end desk top publishing programs. The fact that XML has simplified coding, if only by posing limitations, gives TEX an even stronger position in todays typesetting arena. In this presentation I will discuss the challenges that come to us, present a couple of tools, and demonstrate what we may expect from TEX today. I will also demonstrate that a modern TEX like pdfTEX can give today's TEX users a pretty strong position.
