A more important lesson in all of this? First to market doesn't guarantee dominance of the market.

Where's VisiCalc and Lotus 1-2-3 today?

Where's WordPerfect and WordStar today?

No 123 but we still have Lotus Notes.

Why can’t it die?

Same question could be asked about Harvard Graphics.

I'm not a lawyer, and don't play one on Television.

As someone who was very active in the Washington State Supreme Court, in a case that dragged on for just over ten year's, (Trying to form a new county) WordPerfect & Lawyers seemed to be the weapon of choice.

I'm not sure if Microsoft "OFFICE" is making in roads to the Legal Professionals. Maybe someone who sign's their name and attaches their Bar Number when submitting paper work (Motions etc.,) to the courts, can speak to this.
