Still waiting for my update to arrive from Xerox; not so eager after

reading your critique.  We have both PM and VP; switched to VP because

of the vertical justification feature and a couple of other things (which
ellude me now).  How does PM4 handle vertical justification?  Also, is it
cantankerous, as you say VP is, under Windows 3?  I imagine what we all really
want to know is, (a) will a really functioning, mulit-application environment
be poss. w/Windows (remember the outrageous promises made about OS2)?  and (b)
what will it be like?  Great, so we all went out and bought 386 machines w/
plently of RAM headroom, but tell me, when will it be possible to drop down
a window in VP or PM and sketch out a little doodle in Corel Draw, or fix some
typos in WordPerfect, w/o crashing or moving at a snail's pace?  Is this
too much to ask?
