Thank you, Herbert. I think I'll look into W2K which I dislike less than 
XP. I had to work with XP for a while and hated the constant reminders 
to upgrade and download whatever nonsense. Crap.
I plan to get Ecomstation as soon as 1.2 becomes available, and I'll get 
OpenOffice at the same time and install everything on my older Pentium 
III to get experience and keep my current Warp system productive. When 
everything works to my taste, I'll retire Word 6. This will be for my 
own use. I have to see whether this works for my wife; I have the idea 
that she will be happier with Windows (she is already using Mozilla, of 
course). She does a lot of medical translating and likes to use some 
Windows software tools and dictionaries (although you can find most 
dictionaries on the internet nowadays).
