 Just finished a large essay using Word 3.01 and MacDraw. Just thought I
had to post this little article. :)
 People (including myself) can say what they like about Word, but when
it really comes to it (Hmm, is this a literal Dutch -> English translation?)
Word is really the nicest Wordprocessor I know.
 Word may have bugs, but working around them knowing them Word does all
the things I want. I have made some 'stationeries', and writing an essay
using those is really nice, having all the styles I want and the body of
an essay in _my_ style on line.
 Word is nice for another reason too. When I didn't have much memory a
long time ago, it worked fine in about 400K. Now I give Word 600K (Switcher)
and give Draw about 300K, and still have memory available. (I have 2M)
 I believe to have heard FullWrite needs 1M at least, MW II itself is
immensely huge, well, think I'll keep using Word 3.01 for a long 
time, 'cause I like it!! :) [Never thought I'd say those words :)]
 
 Ernst.
