	You're not serious, are you?  If Word 4.0 does indeed exhibit the
behavior you say (fonts get scrambled when you move to a different Mac)
then it renders the program absolutely unusable for every situation where a
document might possibly be used on more than one system.  Which means it
renders the program absolutely unusable for almost everybody.  I can't
believe even Microsoft would release software with that serious a bug in
it.  Could they?
