   It is incredibly discouraging to find that going Windows 3.0 costs
MUCH more than the $90 or so necessary to buy the Microsoft program
itself.  Having given up on trying to come up with $300 just to buy
Ami Professional, $490 to purchase Pagemaker, etc., I was wondering
what alternatives there are to buying the "big names."
 
   I've already seen a few advertised or in stores that look promising.
As far as word processors go, ProWrite Plus is $195 in a rather
expensive local store (probably around $160 mail order, I guess), and
it comes with a grammar checker as well.  JustWrite is supposed to be
a fast, simple word processor that costs only $79 (for a LIMITED TIME
only, of course).
 
   For terminal programs, I've only seen Crosstalk for Windows ($125)
and Dynacomm, though the latter seemed to disappear in all the mail-
order ads.  And I've only seen $450+ desktop publishers.
 
   Does anyone have any experience with the two word processors I
mentioned?  How about any other desktop publishers, terminal programs,
or ANY seemingly wonderful program of yours for Windows 3.0 that didn't
cost an arm and a leg (Nothing over $150-$200 mail order, please).
I spent almost all available funds ditching my old computer for a color
SVGA 386 screamer, and all it's doing now is animating a couple of
flight simulators very well!  :-)
 
Thanks for any help,
