   You've hit me with several reminders :)   
      
   During the '95 I was authoring the book about Windows 95 (codename   
   Chicago anyone?), so I've got all early versions of Windows (early   
   beta, release candidate 1, final beta, ...). And of course I bought   
   the final product on release day (24 August 1995).   
      
   And Word Perfect! My dear god! I'd been using it since DOS days (late   
   eighties). 5.1 for DOS was really perfect, I probably produced tons of   
   content with it! I used 5.2 for Windows, but not for a long, because   
   there was a problem with printing in Windows (Microsoft to be blamed   
   for this mess), so I switched to MS Word 2.0 for Windows).   
   Do you remember "reveal codes". What a feature! Full control of   
   document, formats, special codes, everything.   
      
   What a journey down the memory lane!   
      
      
   Thank you for this.
