[comp.sys.dec.micro] WordPerfect 5.0, Code Blue

dl@ibiza.cs.miami.edu (David Lesher) (08/26/89)

I am considering advising a friend with several Rainbows in
his office to change to WP5.0. A previous attempt to go to 4.2
was waylaid by the fact that that 4.2 lacked a printer driver
for his NEC LC-860+. 

WordPerfect just wrote back to me (shock, amazement !!! A
software company that ANSWERS letters ) and provided me with
an LQP02 driver for 5.0. They are looking into a solution for
the 24/25 line problem.

So the only remaining problem is: 
	how well does the CB/5.0 combination work?
	Is video redirection needed? Is the screen writing
	speed acceptable? disk I/O? 

Many of these thing could be determined by experimenting, but
Don is on the North Coast while I am down here midst bugs,
drugs, and cocaine Cowboys.

Of course if you have the Suitable Solutions upgrade, let me
know that. BTW, these machines have 10meg/892 k, if that makes
a difference.
