- Enough of this.
- When will both of you get your act together and catch up with Microsoft
- Word 5 for Mac?
- Digita, you should take note that it runs acceptably fast on a 68000
- based Mac Plus with 1 MB, just requiring a hard drive.
- Softwood, notice that it has all the basic word processing features
- (non-breaking spaces, tables, equation editor, view invisibles etc.)
- rather than concentrating on useless interface gimmicks.
- I look forward to WW6 and FW6, I hope!!!
