	I will reinterate again. I have had no problems with the version of 
Word Perfect that I have. I use the program on an explanded 520 (1 meg) and
use a ramdisk in conjunction with it. I have yet to have *any data mixed up
or otherwise corrupted to date. 

	I use WP with my MonoChrome monitor and have yet to see it screw up 
the display or any other such things that I have read in my travels about the 
different services here in the usa. I have have nothing but good to say 
about this product. 

	I have used it to pop out important documents to many places where
the way the document looks is 1/2 the battle. Of *all the W/Ps that I have 
used this is the one that gave me an output to my printer that was perfect.

	As far as getting updates from the CO. I cannot say that I have had
the need to do so. My program works great for me, so no need. The reason 
for mentioning the CO.s backing is that others have had to get a bit of 
help or have encountered a bug, and WP corp. has shipped them a different 
program of the same version, and there bug was gone.

	I can only say that *yes there are others that may use the program 
and have problems with it, but I am not one of them. Of all the reports 
that I have read, I am still looking for the same to happen to me, but 
am plesently pleased to say that they have not, at least to this point.

	I think the program is great, and worth the $$$ for everything that 
you get.
