I understand that WordPerfect is fully featured and widely used, but
does that make it the BEST?  I must be missing something.  I have seen
people fighting with WP's less than intuitive user interface time and
time again.  Excuse me for this flame, but that interface is TERRIBLE.

Please, someone out there tell me that there is some magic secret
(other than key macros) that can make WP acceptable to beginning
users.
