I just received a copy of Ami Pro Working model for Windows
from our University Bookstore (unsolicited).  I thought, what the
heck..  I'll load it up and check it out (I use W4W now).  I was
sorely disappointed to find that translation filters for W4W were
not included in the model.  I understand that working models are 
for evaluation only,  however, I do also understand that if you
want to show how much better you are than your competition, you
read their files, eat their cookies, and then spit them back out
like it was nothing to do.  How can people who are using W4W
compare the two packages without going to the trouble of getting
the 30 day free evaluation copy, etc, etc, blah blah blah.  I received
this demo, with my asking for it.
I just feel that if Lotus is going to do this type of thing, they
should do it adequately.
flames off (I guess)
sorry, it just tripped my trigger.
