I am in the engineering development group at Interleaf.  Naturally, it is
painful to see a blanket dismissal of our product like this, especially since
we've worked so hard to develop a good user interface--and it's been pretty
widely recognized as one of the best.  (E.g., PC Magazine last month said it
makes MS Windows seems "stumblingly awkward by comparison.")

We're always interested in getting feedback about our products (especially
criticism). The follow email address can be used for this purpose:

Questions about Interleaf products can also be sent to this address.

I hope that Richard will take the time to mail his comments either to this
address or directly to me.
