I often don't get very excited about the daily offering on

tried dozens of them in the past and almost none of them impress me
at
all. But I must say just using this Atlantis Word Processor for a few
hours has really impressed me. If you are frustrated over non MS Word
word processors like me, this one is definitely worth a look. And it
can
be portable too. ;-)

Then I found "This "Giveaway-of-the-day" offer has
expired." inside the setup.exe file so, yep, this is the GOTD wrapper
but is it a web-only wrapper or does it contain the full Atlantis
product?


I downloaded it a few minutes after it was up on the website. Mine had
no GAOTD wrapper, just a setup.exe and a readme.txt. Although it doesn't
make a lot of difference, since once installed you can create a copy on
a flash drive. And running it on the flash, has the ability to install
on the computer you are running it on.

No table or frames support. Really, no table support?


Why are people creating tables on a word processor? Why not use a
spreadsheet?

I guess if you like this word processor (and only want a word
processor)
but miss out on the GOTD offer, you could buy it for only $10 with a
70%
discount offer at softpedia.com.

As of version 1.6.5.8, this product dropped support for Windows 9x and
Windows NT4. It's been awhile since I've seen anyone using NT4 but I
still see plenty of users of Windows 9x.


Hmm... I wonder if it gets you future updates for free?
