What a coincidence! I've been asked this question twice in the last three days at work!

Yes, it seems to be a case of "old habits die hard", for two main reasons:

1. Early generation postscript RIPs needed EPSs. New rips can handle anything.

2. Early Quark Xpress only recognised clipping paths in EPSs. Nowadays, clipping paths are a breeze!

Anybody using a reasonably new RIP, and recent page layout programs, should be able to ditch their EPS workflow.
