Sorry if this has already been asked. 

A while ago, I got something in my junk mail from DAK (1-800-325-0800),
offering Wordstar Professional 5.0, Grammatik III  and Key FormDesigner
all for $49.90. 

Knowing how DAK operates, I suspect these are not the most current releases
of the respective software. Can someone confirm this ? 

Assuming these are not current versions, are these versions just missing
some features, or are they notorious for bugs or idiosyncracies ? 

Feature for feature, does WS 5.0 have most of the "standard" features expected
in a modern editor ? 

I don't read this group frequently, so please email, and I'll summarize to the
net. 

Thanks ,
