Sunday 14 March 1999
Having been a dedicated WordPerfect fan for several years (the first 386 I used had WordPerfect 5.1) I am a bundle of nerves trying to make MS Word put charts where I want them to go, and all sorts of other nightmare formatting problems, for my Mechanics 4 coursework (why not sensible reveal codes equivalent!). I wouldn't use it except for the fact that I need to edit it at school, and they don't have WordPerfect. How such a crappy program can become such a standard I just don't know. It shows how people rely on the name rather than investigating the quality of the product itself.
