I heard a rumour from an acquaintance that Word Perfect was dropping it's
line of software for the Amiga.  Can anyone either confirm this or refute this.

If this is true, which I sincerely hope is not, what would this be saying of theattitude of software producers toward the future marketability of the Amiga?? I
think that this could be a major blow to the respectability that Commodore has
been trying so hard, well maybe I should say Amiga users instead of Commodore,  to attain.

I would really appreciate to hear from anyone who could enlighten me on the
current situation.

Thanks for your help.
