No one has commented on what I think is a problem... speed.
Put Word 4.0 into PageView and it's speed drops by an order
of magnitude.  Include some tables and it's gets worse.

I've got an SE/30, so I can deal with it.  I feel sorry for
people using it on a Plus.  It's not as bad as FullWrite, but
I would be looking at WriteNow or MacWrite II instead.
