Hmmm... I am running Word 4.0 on a 50 MHz/68030 with System 7.1, and
32-bit addressing turned on. I have absolutely no problems with it at all.
My machine has a 32K static RAM cache, and that is also enabled.
I would HATE to "move up" to 5.1; Having seen the user interface, I much
prefer the older version. (If I wanted *THAT* kind of a UI, I would use
Windows ;-).
