Like anything in this life, nothing is perfect. Shockingly, this applies to our Atari ST, which has one characteristic I never cared for: its obscure, ugly, stretched medium resolution. Well, since my colour monitor decided to blow up, I have been happily zipping along in monochrome, which would explain the recent run of high-resolution articles. All were written using the classic, 1st Word Plus. (Go on, you can call me a geek!)
It's hardly a modern word processor bursting with features, but it does the job well. Sure, I can't wait to get my new colour monitor, as I'm missing out on games in glorious 16-bit technicolour. However, I have definitely fallen in love with this crisp black-and-white display, which has met every requirement lately.
Who needs an expensive modern computer? Not me!! Yes, I am mad... :^)
