The lack of what users have considered "minimum" features in other office suites will hurt it. Users always want more features NOT less. When I was supporting my DOS task switcher years ago, users always wanted it to "be smaller, swap faster, and have more features" and they didn't want to "buy more memory (EMS/XMS) or a faster processor (286).". Today's market is so much different: memory and hard diskspace are CHEAP!

I know what you mean in JAVA lacking a few nice language features of C++... I am going to hold off complete judgement until I have done one good size project in it.

On the eSuite web site I saw reference to the "eSuite spell check component", a server-based spell-check component. Did Lotus remove this from eSuite? I could also see it not being part of the word processor, per se, but rather a component to be used by many different applets.
