I'll second that.  AMI Pro may be fine for people who've never
seen a computer before, but W4W is a lot like W4Mac, only much better.
Now if only someone would do something like MacDraw or MacDraft for
Windows.... (yes, I know AMI Pro has a built-in draw program, but
it's nowhere near as precise as MacDraft)
