Re: Office package

Believe it or not, there were actually two "office" type packages for the AMIGA.  The earlier version was the set of Softwood programs (Final Writer, Final Data, Final Calc, etc... sold as a bundle) while the latter package is known as Wordworth Office (on a single CD vs the multi-box set from Softwood).

A review of the Wordworth CD can be found at:

Both sets will probably do what you want with the exception of a PowerPoint type of program.  For that, get something like Scala, etc... and there is your office suite. :-)

Now please understand, either of these two "office packages" will give you an Office XP type of feel but are not (necessarily) compatible and lack features found in the modern MS office suite.

I've never used the Wordworth programs but I've always heard good things about them. I have used the Softwood applications and like them very much.

Hope this helps,
