Subject: Word Processing.  Why the silence?
Newsgroups: comp.sys.mac
Keywords: Best, Worst, Reviews, etc...

I read with interest the discussion that centered around the different
properites of FullWrite, Word 3.0x and WordPerfect.  There appeared to
be a fair amount of enthusiasm for many packages.  I've noticed that
the most recent McUser chooses WriteNow 2.0 as the best word processor 
(although, I would concede that the specific author chose WriteNow as
the best package for themselves personally).  I have been using WriteNow
because no-one has managed to convinve me that the other packages were
worth the effort.  However, I would hope that others have chosen different
word processors for their specific needs.  Why did discussion of word
processors dry up?  Is there a consensus as to the 'Net users" preferred
word processing package?  Which is best and why?  I would be interested
in seeing more about word processors discussed on the net (and, of course, if
others disagree this topic can dry up quite quickly!)
