It would not surprise me in the least if Microsoft was behind the interment of WriteNow, wanting to remove competition for Word.

[correction] Microsoft out-spent, out-marketed, and ultimately out-lasted T/Maker and subsequent WriteNow owners/publishers. Like almost every other desktop application, Microsoft just won in the marketplace.

  • I had always figured that the disappearance of WriteNow was due to its being written in 680x0 assembly. Once Apple made the move to PowerPC, moving it to the then-new architecture would have meant a complete rewrite. -- Hawaiian717 00:04, 22 March 2006 (UTC)
