Summary: Another Good Word

[one of these days I won't put this here and see what happens]

I just wanted to add my two cents and say that Tom Rockiki's AmigaTeX
is one of the best software packages for the Amiga that I've ever seen.
I have access to a Vax 11/780 here that runs TeX and outputs to a
LaserWriter.  Since I got AmigaTeX, I do all of my TeXing local and
only upload the final TeX document when I want to print it out.  On
a loaded Vax, TeX runs much slower than it does on my Amiga, and the
previewer saves an enourmous amount of time.  It also costs less
than similar packages for the IBM-PC and the Macintosh.

Standard Disclaimer: I have no affiliation with Radical Eye (i?) Software
aside from being a satisfied customer.  I just like to see good work
recognized.
