I was the one who spoke favorably about WordPerfect.

Which version did you "test drive"?  The latest version (8-1-88) has
an increased scrolling speed.  It keeps up with my typing just fine (and
I'm certainly no slouch on the keyboard either!).  Scrolling still is
kinda slow, but if I had a blitter, I'm sure it would be better.

Anyways, if it is a choice between the slow scrolling and mounds of
features of WordPerfect, and a faster scrolling and less capable word 
processor, I'll take WordPerfect.  You can do ANYTHING with this
program, and you can print stuff on any of the 300 printers supported!
