As a big fan of WordPerfect on my first DOS machine (286 clone), I agree. I respect authors like GRRM for sticking with WordStar, but whenever I get nostalgic and wondering about WordPerfect in DosBox, I remember I use emacs and typst. All the good things about WordPerfect, but vastly superior.

I keep seeing ads for expensive "writerdecks" that run between $500 and $1200 and have a bare-minimum OS that is intended for distraction-free writing. I keep wondering how these are any better than an old laptop, FreeDOS, and WordPerfect 5.2, except as Veblen goods.
