Message-ID: <11476@chaph.usc.edu> Date: 17 Aug 90 13:28:20 GMT Sender: news@chaph.usc.edu Organization: University of Southern California, Los Angeles, CA Lines: 17 Nntp-Posting-Host: aludra.usc.edu Our office is in need of a word processor with heavy-duty features (spell check, thesaurus, mail merge, graphic layout, etc...) that will run FAST! on 286-10 (yea, yeah; flames -> /dev/null) machines. We have at least 640K of RAM with 2mb of Expanded memory on each machine. Our secretaries type over 90 wpm at the minimum and need something that will keep up with that typing speed. Any suggestions? Wordstar 6.0? WordPerfect? AmiPro? Word for Windows? Multimate? Etc. Budget of $500 per package. Thanks -- Will summarize if enough responses are collected from netland. ...dale ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ name: Dale C.
