I have not purchased WP, 'cause they have not offered me their best software.  

WP for the NeXT is missing many advanced word processing features that appear  
to be standard features in word processors today.  I would have purchased their  
word processor with WP v5.1 features but it was never offered or announced as a  
future NeXT product.  

The WP product appears to be going no where on the NeXT.  I'd be better off  
buying FrameMaker or some other product than investing my dollars or anyone  
else's dollars into WP for NeXT machines or for mixed machine networks.   
FrameMaker is much more feature rich than WP on the NeXT and runs on a variety  
of machines.  Today, I would not recommend WP.  It is hard to recommend  
software with no future.  Tomorrow...what are my choices?

Word Perfect does have a chance to gain on Microsoft and others in the word  
processing market by having the same word process on all computer platforms.   
Most companys have several different computer systems, if you can buy the same  
word processor on every computer system, then the company will buy the same  
word processor for every computer system for compatibility issues. Microsoft  
has no interest in being platform independent.  Look at the platforms currently  
supported. And PC DOS machines are a dead end.  Will PC DOS survive the 90's?   
I think not!

I would not be writing here if I did not want WP to be a success.  But they  
appear to be missing the boat.
