I like Claris and MacWrite II too for the same reasons you mention, but their
constant delaying of MacWrite Pro is worrying me.  I need a more powerful word
processor soon, and I've been waiting for MacWrite Pro for quite a while now.
Either they're working out some major bugs, or adding some major features, but
either way it better be one terrific program when it comes out.

Another Person's Opinion


BTW, did they give any reason for the further delay?
