Hello :)

I purchased the Norton Utilities Bundle from MacWarehouse recently, which
came with Publish It Easy 2.1.9 and Dollars and Sense 5.0 (as well as 
The Hunt for Red October, which is a port from the PC). I realize that these
programs are probably quite out of date, but I was wondering if anyone
has any experience with them (I haven't had time to play with them much, if
at all)

There was a coupon to upgrade Publish It Easy to Ver 3.0 for about $60, what's
in the new version? My impression of ver 2.1.9 is that it's incredibly slow,
even when I'm just typing in something in Full Size view. I realize that this
is no PageMaker, but it's too sluggish for in document editing.
Does v.3.0 improve on this? Is it worth considering?

I couldn't find Dollars and Sense in any Mail order catalogs -- is this
program basically defunct (version 5.0 is dated 1990)?

I'd appreciate any comments, experiences, etc.
Thanks,
t.c.
#I speak for myself, obviously :)
