I got to play with it for about a half hour a couple of weeks ago.
The copy I played with was beta, so I doubt that they're shipping
(though I don't remember what the Ann Arbor rep said).

I realy liked some of the features, but didn't really get to play long
enough to remember exactly what I liked.  Specifically, footnotes,
pictures, chapter references, etc seemed much easier and intuitive
than Word et al.

However, I got el bombo without too much effort: with the spelling
checker if I remember full right  :-) .

BTW. . . . .

I am somewhat worried that most packages have far too many features.
I.E.  FullWrite has a MacDraw like capability for creating pictures.
With multifinder coming out, shouldn't software be DEcentralizing,
that is, performing a single function.  I know a product like MS Works
was needed before multifinder, but now wouldn't software be better if
we could choose only the modules (programs) that we will be actually
using.  

I remember so ex-Apple guru commenting on this (don't remember who).
He was upset that even Write Now (a product he otherwise thought was
the ultimate Mac w.p. environment) had included a spelling checker.

Comments?
