It appears bugless. At least as fast as 3.02. Runs fine on my SE and a friend's 512E. The application itself is 625K. { Very nice new features, not the least of which is the ability to operate on text while in Page Preview mode. Wonderful, wonderful. At any rate, it will NOT be a repeat of the 3.02 fiasco.
