Because it does for me exactly what I want, with fairly powerful macros and good quality output. It's true that there are many other packages around nowadays that can do better, but when I bought Word Perfect for the Amiga it was by far the most powerful package around. Therefore, like so many users, I have become familiar with it and, as I say, it does everything I could possibly want in a word processor. If I were buying a wp today, WP may not be my first choice … but, with its spelling checker, thesaurus, contents/indexing, outliner, maths and column output it would certainly be close to the top of the list for consideration.

This isn't for you Mike, but I thought I'd just stick this in here since I saw WordPerfect in the title. We had a couple of users call asking if they could send in a WordPerfect title page and disk to qualify for our PowerUp offer. While the offer is supposed to be limited to desktop publishers, we have decided to extend it to WordPerfect owners as well, since it is a high-end program which has been recently orphaned. So, WordPerfect owners also can purchase PageStream 2.2 for only $120. See the text file in the library (PowerUp offer) for more information on the deal. Michael Soft-Logik
