I bought it on June 10, 1987.

It translated newlines into spaces when
sending the program to the printer, which
screwed up "currentfile int str readline".
I complained about this, and the "architect"
of the program didn't know what I was talking
about.  Said he'd have to talk with the
programmer.  I'm still waiting for a fixed
copy.  I like it when companies treat their
bleeding edge bug-finding customers better
than that.

There were also problems with it crashing.
There were also some nice things about it.
