   Anyone know anything about Word 5.1?  I have Word 5.0, it's ok
   on my IIsi, I'm rather happy with it.  I see the new toolbars like
   they have in Excel 4.0 are in Word 5.1.  What else??  Any bug fixes??

   Is it worth the trouble (the price is low--14.95 + 5$ shipping)
   to upgrade?  What would I get besides the new toolbar effect?  I am
   currently in love with my ribbon and ruler.  Does the 5.1 have a
   ribbon and ruler?

You supposedly get some nice table-generation features also.  Don't
remember what else they had on the little brochure.  I just received
the upgrade coupon in the mail yesterday, and I went ahead and sent in
for it.
