	Maybe Word /now/... but not back in the days of Office 97. Granted,
back then Publisher (which WAS included in one of the smaller Office
packages) wasn't suited for anything with long text -- it was great for one
to five page pamphlets or brochures, or Yard Sale signs. I suspect I was
spoiled by the software I'd been using on my Amiga (Professional Page, and
later PageStream)

	I'll admit I don't use Publisher as much as I used to (since I'm no
longer in a gaming group, there's less need for character sheets,
histories, etc.). M$ doesn't help in that Publisher gets practically no
documentation. Even the O'Reilly Office 2013 "green book" gives it a mere
28-page chapter -- even One Note got more pages (29)! PowerPoint was given
five whole chapters, and Access received four (Granted, I bought the Access
2013 specific green book too).
