What do you mean by the "Luddite" version?

Well, it works the other way, really. You can configure Xy4 for
DOS so
that it looks, feels, and works precisely like the Luddite
version. In
fact, as I recall, it will ask you that when you run the truly
hideous
install program. (Don't mean to frighten you, but hideous it is.)

Well, then. The Technology Group is right there for you at good
old 36
South Charles St. in Baltimore. Stop in, say, hi, pay the good
folks,
and walk out happily with manual, a nice legal copy of the
software, and
perhaps a tip or two from the staff.

Oh: and if you see Ken Frank, go up to him and ask him what
happened to
the Smartwords Beta?
