Hello All.
  We Have a MicrovaxII runing 4.3 BSD Unix.  It is kind of underutilized, So
I am considering getting WordPerfect for it.  I am looking for any advice /
Warnings / Opinions from anyone whose had experience with Wordperfect under
Unix.  I understand that 4.2 is the most recent Wordperfect release for
Unix.
 - How well does it work with different terminals.  (ie: we have many old
terminals with no function keys or arrow keys, will wordperfect work with
those?)
 - Is it very slow?  I expect it to be somewhat slower than wordperfect on a
PC, but does it place a heavy load on the CPU?
 - any difficulties printing?
 - any other advice?
Please email me, and I will summarize to the net.    Thanks in advance!
