I have been using ProCite for just a month or so and think that it is quite
powerful and fast.  However, like all powerful tools, it takes some time to
learn, something not helped by some strange organization of the screen
menus and by incomplete information in the otherwise excellent manual.

The organization of the screen menus strikes me a strange because the
numerous option screens are accessed from different menus.  Thus, fonts,
point sizes and the like are changed in a 'Configuration' screen accessed
from the 'File' menu, what parts of a bibliographic entry are printed,
other stylistic options from various screens gotten at through the
'Bibliopgraphy' menu.  An approach such as the multiple choice screen used
in Word 5 would be very nice.

Be aware that your friendly school computer school may not have the best
price for ProCite.  After paying $300+ here I found that one of the big
mail order places (Mac Zone??) was asking $198.
