How long are we supposed to wait for Word 3.0?  In his letter,
Bill indicated that it would go out in January.

While I'm on the subject, has anyone got a clue whether 3.0 will
be more merciful to those of us without an external drive than
1.05 was?  I *still* remember doing 45 count them 45 disk swaps
to bring a ~30K file in off a separate disk.  (Needless to say,
I haven't done *that* again!)
