  I tried Word 4 that way, and was not really impressed, but at the
time the only alternatives were WordStar and WordPerfect, so I bit the
bullet and bought Word 5... and the manual was great! It made all the
difference to using the bloody thing and M$ had me. I went to WfW v1.0
and that *awful* manual, but M$ fixed that in WfW 2.

  I must have been one of their best customers until they fucked me
with DOS6.
