- Well,
- If I owned the Mac version and did not have the money to buy DOS versions
- of software Executor might be a good option. Especially in the case of a
- word processor app, which will not take a major hit due to the speed loss.
-

- Also, Executor seems to work better with slightly older software, which is
- often available second hand at significantly less than up to date products.
- While this is an extreme example, I just purchased Aldus Pagemaker v.4.0
- for $20 Canadian, it should work on Executor (after I buy it, it would take
- longer than ten minutes to even install it!) This will allow me or others
- to use this product on a second machine for significantly less than the
- price of a new version, and doubly so if I intended to purchase both MAC OS
- and Windoze versions.
