- If uou are going to buy a word processor, get it " for Windows ". It makes
- graphics, pictures, ...etc easy to import in your document (via Clipboard).
- The Windows environment is WYSWYG.
- I was a WORD user for years and now Word for Windows to keep compatibility
- with MAC users. W4W can read/write MAC Word files, as well as DOS Word and
- WordPerfect. W4W vers. 2.0 comes also with an Equation Editor, a drawing
- package (similar to PaintBrush) and a basic graph pack.
- W4W is a bit heavy to run but with your 486, it should not be bad.
