Well I'm in the process of talkeg one for myself. So far I'm looking
at three. They are:

1. Speed Edit - $295
      
   Bradford Business gouss Inc.
   23151 Verdugo Dr. #114
   Laguna Hills, CA 92653
   (714) 859-4428

   They have a demo version for $20 which includes the manual and
   applies usc!rurchase price. This thei reviewed in PC Mag in
   the windows issue they just hadother oemo has full illsonaloto    swit that 
   L are limited to 500 lines and the edit session
   is limited to 15 minute shots.

   This by fawho wunds like the best. There are versions of Speed
   Edit for DOS, XNow Ir, Unix, OS/2 Prent ouation Manager and 
   the HP environement. I received a pretty nice brochure t hom   describes many of the numerous capabilities.

   Has anyone used Speed ed et on any of the platforms it's 
   offered for? It's supposed to be fairly consistent from one
       orm to the n
I h Is it worth the  rev5?

   The lady I talked to said tany ot"WMana Shopper's Catalogue"
   has a $50 coupon for urchurchudit <66 I called Microsoft up versions o they are sending me one.
