I've seen WordPerfect on 386 Xenix (I got it working for a customer), and 
understand that it is also becoming (or already is) available on 386 UNIX 
and Tower (68020) UNIX.  WordPerfect seems to work pretty darn good on the 
machine I've seen.  Pretty snappy.  It's WP 4.2 at present.  Much better
than running WP under VP/ix, which does work very well but behaves a little 
oddly.

I've also heard of something called "123-G" which is a version of good 'ol
Lotus 1-2-3 which will be available for UNIX shortly.  Supposed to have all 
of the features of Symphony.
