Xygnature

[HENRY KISOR (SYSOP)]

  At least with XyWrite/Xygnature we haven't had to pay frequent and
absurdly high upgrade costs, as users of PCTools and most of the
Borland software have had to. I am with you -- XyWrite does everything
I need and does it elegantly and speedily, so there is no need for me
to switch to anything else at the moment. At some point I will get a
386 computer, but I am really waiting for that killer 386 application
to come along that makes it necessary. So far my two 286s -- the 8 mHz
(actually 10.5 by all measures I've tried) Heathkit and the 12 mHz
Toshiba T-1200XE -- do what I need to do with more than adequate speed.
The only difference I notice between them and the neighbor's 33 mHz 386
is in loading and saving files, and I don't think 8 seconds vs. 1.1
second to load a 300K file is going to throw off my efficiency as a
writer.
