Both are available for Windows. At the moment, you can even download a beta 
version of QXP 7 for free. Adobe offers a 30 day trial version of InDesign.

For lay people insufficient, unfortunately. But there are very good books on 
both programs and DTP in general available. If you have a book shop 
specialised in computer books in your neighbourhood, try to find out what 
suits your needs.
