Word vs. Frame

["Suzette Leeming" <suzette -dot- leeming -at- sympatico -dot- ca>]

GlacierI have searched everywhere, and cannot find a recent comparison of MS
Word (2000) and FrameMaker (at least 6.0). The most recent one I can find is
Alex Ragen's comparison from 2000. I hoping that someone may have created a
comparison in a table-like format.

The company  I work for has decided it is time to revisit the tool we use to
create our documentation. The problem is, I am absolutely in love with
FrameMaker and can't imagine going back to Word. Our manuals can be quite
large, with multi-chapters, conditional text, etc. and my experience has
been that Master Documents in Word is still unstable.

Has anybody completed a comparison chart like this that they would be
willing to share with me? I know I am biased, so probably not the best
person to complete a comparison such as this.

Have a great long weekend everyone!
