Generally I agree with you, but still MSWord 5.1a is one of the best 
ever made textprocessors for the Mac. - And I'm sorry to say that /IF/ 
they had kept that line in developing, MSWord would have been the only 
textprocessor worth spending moeny on. - And then all the others would 
only be niche-products... /If/ so - we would really have had a 100% 
monopoly.:-)

Cheers, Erik Richard
