I'm another one who switched from scripsit to XyWrite, with occasional
client-dictated forays over the years into Word, WordPerfect, WordStar
2000, and (gag, retch) Oasys.

The TRS-80 Model 16B I used to work on was fun, but the OS (Xenix)
wasn't Tandy's -- it was licensed from a certain large software
developer located just outside Seattle. :-)
