Novel did a pretty good job of trashing WP before Corel Got it
But what I love here is they the person Trashing WP 5.1 hasn't said a single word about M$ Word.
If WP was Horrible Word was much worse and a Disaster. As a WP user from way before 5 I didn't have a single issue with it at the 5 level but I did run into difficulties with 6-1 for Windows.
5 and previous versions where all DOS applications not Windows Applications just like the early versions of Word which needed a lot more Brain Power Invested in Learning and in my personal experience even caused one big Issue with IBM who made word so widely used.
Owing to a error in the Destruction Manual supplied to IBM by M$ a new IBM PC owner following the manual to the letter couldn't do something I can not longer remember the exact thing now as it's so long ago, and after being told by the Idiots at the IBM PC side of the business to Read the Manual he grabbed his 12 Gage and gave the unit both barrels out of sheer frustration.
I had to deal with the Warranty Repair to that unit as the Accountant who ran the PC side of the business ran away and hid after peeving off the customer so they had to grab a Ranking Tech to deal with the by now Super peeved off customer.
Hardly intuitive if you ask me but on a more sensible note when I first started this business all the staff laughed that I still used WP and said all sorts of nasty things about it and how much better word was.
Seems that after needing to use WP8 a few times they stopped using word and every one complains bitterly just how nasty Word is and that was before the Ribbon Appeared.
This year I'll most likely be moving from WP 12 to X5 if I get motivated enough or what is more likely I get peeved off enough with the way that the newer versions of Word do not open the files the way that they used to.
