- Why, thank you.
-
- Word (2.0a) is my word processor of choice, but I don't use it very much
- for equations, because the interface is rather clunky, I would much rather
- edit equations inside the body text than bring up a seperate programs. Well,
- there's always LaTeX...
-
- In answer to the question about TT fonts, it is useful to upgrade to Win3.1.
- TrueType is a very useful feature, but the main attraction of Win3.1 is that
- it is more stable than 3.0. Definitely upgrade.
