Just letting y'all know that apparently in InDesign on PC you can NOT use the scrubby zoom. Even tho it works on Illustrator and Photoshop. Correct me if I'm wrong.

Yes, you’re correct. The feature you are talking about is called ‘Animated Zoom’ (it’s a Mac-only feature). I usually turn this off:)

You're correct, Scrubby/Animated Zoom is for some reason not supported in InDesign on PC, yet works well in Illustrator and Photoshop. Really wish InDesign on PC supported it because I go from Mac to PC all the time, and it's frustrating to have different features in the same program unavailable due to being on a different platform.

I have a lot of complaints about the Windows interface. This doesn't even come close to bothering me.
