Hey at least it's free, and if you want to let users type
up a document and print it, it works nice. Many users
just want to type up a nice letter, and print it. They
are not into electronically sending Word98 docs anyways;
since they usually have to be scanned for macro viruses.
So I can say the flip side: Students, and economy-minded users
will use wp8 instead of Word98, until Microsoft gives away
a free version. Thank you, Corel.
