MacSpellRight -- Warning

	Just bought this program, which claims to add spelling checking to
MacWrite (by adding a "Spell" entry to the main menu.)  The manual claims
that there are tow versions of the spelling checker.  One version does only
spelling checks and the other include a thesaurus.  According to my under-
standing of the manual, I need MacWrite 3.3 or later to use the Thesaurus 
version, and the Spell only would work with any MacWrite.

	It appears that neither version works on my Macintosh, so I went
down to a dealer to find out when the 3.? upgrade for MacWrite would be
available and they guessed it would be out sometime in January.  So
now I am waiting to see if getting 3.? will solve my problems.  If you NEED
a spelling checker and need it yesterday, call Assimaltion Process and make
sure you will be buying a usable product before you order.

IS there anyone out there with version 3.3 of MacWrite?  I tried to find
something more advanced than 2.2 in Portland (OR) and was stumped.  I
suspect that the larger cities are the only ones having it...
