Word 4 isn't perfect, but at least Microsoft didn't build a wonderful
customer perception selling inexpensive shareware, go commercial, raise the
price significantly, ship three buggy releases within a week and then
disappear for, what, 18 months? -- between 10.3 and the still rumored 11.0.

I was willing to tolerate RR when it was shareware and had lots of rough
edges. Now that it's commercial, however, it creates a higher level of
expectation -- which it doesn't come close to meeting. Scripting is a pain,
the documentation is ludicrous, the user interface is a farce. The only
reason I still use 10.3 is because I haven't wanted to spend money on
something else -- but I don't plan on upgrading to 11.0. I'm going to some
other program instead.
