Is WordPerfect so much faster than MS Word? I’ve never tried it, and I’m surprised to hear it.

For simple everyday text work, I’m unwilling to wait for Word to crank up. I often use a text editor (EditPad Lite), but it is frustrating that I can’t structure a list of ideas into a simple outline just by hitting tabs and returns. And bland text editor output is no fun to look at or read, that’s why I want RTF. With RTF, you can give text shape, making it possible to add meaning and emphasis, let alone making it easier on the eyes.

If WordPerfect is fast, I’ll try it. Right after I try working KeyNote into the mix.
