Freemesser (709ITP)) Organization: Rochester Institute of Technology, Information Systems Lines: 14 I was the one who spoke favorably about WordPerfect. Which version did you "test drive"? The latest version (8-1-88) has an increased scrolling speed. It keeps up with my typing just fine (and I'm certainly no slouch on the keyboard either!). Scrolling still is kinda slow, but if I had a blitter, I'm sure it would be better. Anyways, if it is a choice between the slow scrolling and mounds of features of WordPerfect, and a faster scrolling and less capable word processor, I'll take WordPerfect. You can do ANYTHING with this program, and you can print stuff on any of the 300 printers supported! =cf=
