 All of the World is Divided into Three Parts, 2002-08-24
All of the world is divided into three parts, Microsoft Word users, WordPerfect users and non-computer users. Being in the WordPerfect camp, I feel somewhat compelled to attempt to convert the Word crowd. If you are using Word, and you don't require all the "prodding whether you want it or not" that the Word program provides for formatting, spelling, etc., then WordPerfect is really something you should try and the Family Pack 3 is a nice way to go. As compared to Word, WordPerfect is a "cleaner" word processing program and is easier to use. All the tools are there, spell check, formatting and grammar help, they're just not as intrusive as they are in Word. I also prefer Quattro Pro, the spreadsheet program over Microsoft's Excel. When Quattro Pro was first introduced by Borland (a long time ago!) it was hands down better than Excel in graphing and analysis. While Excel has narrowed the gap, Quattro Pro still leads the way. This is a strong package at a very attractive price.

 Forgot the difficult Address Book, 2002-05-08
As I said before it is great - BUT - to address an envelope is now difficult - in WordPerfect 6 it was easy. So far (about 1 week) I haven't been able to figure it out. But it still beats Word 2002 by a mile, which, "in a Word" stinks.

Sure beat MS Word, 2002-05-08
After paying [the money] for the Office XP "Upgrade", which included Word 2002, I was very disappointed. The upgraded Access and Excel didn't have very much new to offer. After using WordPerfect 6 for sometime, I thought the "latest" Word would be a vast improvement. It isn't. To add a caption to a picture is just about impossible. The two just won't stay together - I finally found a horribly round-about means of doing it, but it didn't look good and I finally gave up. Don't believe what is in the manual or what is "taught" in other manuals.
So, I purchased the WordPerfect Family Pack 3 for [price]minus a [price] rebate. Could anything this cheap be good?? Well, it is head and shoulders over Word. The MS software creators should be ashamed! Adding a caption (which sticks with the photo/image) is simple and quick. To look at the hidden nuances of a paragraph is easy and complete. If you use Word now, buy this one. It won't be long before you recognize the superiority of WordPerfect 9!!!

WordPerfect 9, 2002-04-29
I would have rated it with 5 stars but it didn't have the address book that the earlier versions have. That is my complaint for this version.

Word Perfect Is Word Is Not, 2002-03-12
I started my college career, using Apple, and it was fine. Then the college switched to Word Perfect and Word. I tried both and fell in love with Word Perfect because I found it to be exactly suited to my needs. Recently, my computer was upgraded and I lost my Word Perfect. I was forced to use Word. I HATE IT, especially that stupid sun wanting to help me type a letter. I am an accomplished typist,(90WPM for the last 40+ years). I don't want Word or its templates. I want what Word Perfect allows me to do--type my manuscripts, quickly and efficiently without over-riding my typing decisions. A friend recently said Word was invented for people who either couldn't type or couldn't format. That's fine for them. But for the rest of us, thank goodness WordPerfect is still around, because we much prefer the ease of using the Word Perfect processing system.
