GET READY TO FLAME AWAY!! In our department every one uses WordPerfect5.0
and everytime they have to do anything complicated they go scrambling for
manuals/help books/me.  What good are all the fricking features if you need
an IQ of 150 to remember is this ALT-f1 or CTRL-F10 or SHIT-Fsomething else.
I have been using WordStar5.0 for the last 6 months or so and got my brand
new copy of WordStar 5.5 today in the mail.
  	WordStar 5.0 is so easy to use, you can have pulldown menus, or the
old menus, or no menus.  It's Advanced Page Preview is infinetly better than
WordPerfect's.  In WordPerfect you need to hit like 5 keys to start sub-
scripting than the 5 again after you type 1 letter.  It's a TPA.  WordStar
could use more advanced macro capability but, besides that it is easy to
use, it's powerful, and it's flexible.

	My 2 cents worth.
