Well, given that MS Word is an MS product — you don't WANT IT ON AN AMIGA. MS just _loves_ to break the development "rules" for whatever platform they program on. MS Word for MAC has died almost _every_ time Apple updated their operating system. Its latest fiasco was when the Quadra MACs came out. MS uses some self-modifying code, a BIG no-no with `040's. "Reinventing the wheel" is almost a requirement unless you want unfriendly visits from MS's and Lotus' lawyers. Fox Software was able to get off the ground because they were able to get a little piece of a _BIG_ pie. The Amiga "Pie" is quite a bit smaller, thank you. And I believe Fox used the $$ from their DOS version to help pay for the Mac version. – via Whap!
