WordPro/2 just came out of beta a few days ago. It's VERY, VERY big. It
will run on a machine with 8Mb, but make sure you stock up on coffee and
donuts, there will be plenty of "rest break" opportunities. On my
BBS machine (64M RAM/5x86-160) it runs very quickly, and it has lots of
features (more than I'm ever going to use, especially since the only
documentation for SmartSuite 96 is a bunch of Adobe Acrobat files on the
CD- I HATE THAT!)

My GA copy is apparently in the mail somewhere.. but I don't think I'll be
using it because most of my work is still done on an 8Mb notebook. I use
AmiPro/2 3.0, and that gets me by.
