I used Word 5 on a Macintosh back about 25 years ago. It was an excellent program and did everything I could ever have wanted to do with word processing. 10 years ago, I used Word-for-Windows. It seemed to be the same program, but ran a heck of a lot slower even on an allegedly faster computer, and used a heck of a lot more memory. Go placidly amid the noise and haste, and remember what peace there may be in silence.
