- Yep, I can agree with that. It seems so disk intensive too. But what the
- current crop of Amiga Wordprocessors need is some of the nicer features of Word
- implemented well, such as graphic anchors and an equation editor which can edit
- multiple lines of formulae at once, unlike Mathscript. This is very important to
- me. I also find the distinct lack of line styles in Final Writer restricting. I
- will probably end up getting Wordworth and have both Wordworth and Final Writer
- on my hard disk.

- Stability is everything. I must say that I've never got FW3 to crash even once
- before.
