- MS Word is infinitely better on the MAC than in DOS in terms of appearance
- and useability, functionally the same. I was really glad to see that Bill
- Gates got his head (almost) out of his ass and decided to put up Word for

- scheista-like software and then a couple of months later offering "low-cost"
- upgrades to the program that should have been released in the first place.
