Our office is in need of a word processor with heavy-duty features
(spell check, thesaurus, mail merge, graphic layout, etc...) that will
run FAST! on 286-10 (yea, yeah; flames -> /dev/null) machines.  We
have at least 640K of RAM with 2mb of Expanded memory on each machine.
Our secretaries type over 90 wpm at the minimum and need something
that will keep up with that typing speed. Any suggestions? Wordstar
6.0? WordPerfect? AmiPro? Word for Windows?  Multimate? Etc. Budget of
$500 per package. Thanks -- Will summarize if enough responses are
collected from netland.
