I'm using both programs. The problem with 6.1 is not that its
slow (running by itself or with only one other program). Its
buggy. For example, the spellchecker doesn't work and hangs up
the program at times.
Also, in Warp OS2 the system slows drastically if I try to run
Quattro Pro for Windows and WPWin 6.1 at the same time. When I
load Ecco (a Windows PIM) things become impossible. By using
XyWrite I can relieve the load on system resources.
Incidentally, I'm using a 486 DX250 with 16 meg of RAM.

The only complaint I have so far is that there's no conversion
feature for files going to or coming from 6.1.
