Andrea: It's not a size issue regarding the suite, it was just that we wanted to offer a word processor ONLY on the disc. I can tell you from past experience of the customers we sell to that having the full suite would confuse our end users. I am 99% sure that we would be inundated with calls asking us which of the suite package applications they are supposed to use. Trying to save some confusion. Thanks anyway. ~ Mark G.
