Image quality: Used/Unmodified
The Microsoft Word word processor was first introduced for MS-DOS in
1983. Its design made use of a mouse and WYSIWYG graphics. Its crude
WYSIWYG/mouse support was a direct response to the Apple Lisa/Mac,
and VisiCorp Visi On. Initially it competed against many popular word
processors such as WordStar, Multimate, and WordPerfect. Word for DOS
was never really successful.
