I have decided to do my Disertation on a Mac.
After look at the writting programs it looks 
like Full Write is the only true WYSIWYG editor
with enough text formating to get the copy 
past the thesis formate checkers. It checked 
out a demo copy and it looked a lot like interleaf,
which I have a fair amount respect for. I have 
heard the full Write is slow. Anyone have any 
experiences(good or bad)? Slow I can live with,
eating my disertation is another question.
My basic motivation is that I have formatted 
huge documents in scribe, itroff, latex, and 
various IBM products to horrible to mention,
the mere sight of a text formating instruction 
makes me ill.

please email replies: if I actually read comp.sys.mac
I would have no time to actually write my disertation.
