Are you sure it's not the demo-version (that is really unreliable -no wonder
for a demo-) that's out 'and around'? I'm real anxious to buy
MS-Word (MS-Write[r] it's called for the ST) when the definite version
hits the market. My kind of wordprocessor!

Any of you know whether WordPerfect is out for the ST already?
