- Do you use many Microsoft Apps? I think they've done a number
- of innovative things. In the Word Processor market, word seems
- to be the first word processor to allow you to copy text using
- drag and drop rather than cut and paste. The way the mini-apps
- are integrated into the major Windows apps is also pretty
- neat. And Access is a marvelously inventive and well-designed
- database product.
