this is why they killed off wordpad. they added spell check and 'ai' bullshit to notepad, they would have had to do the same to wordpad--which was basically notepad with basic formatting and rtf/doc support....
with even just spell check added to wordpad, most users would have had no reason to ~~buy~~subscribe to office for word, then, just those needing the 'advanced' features beyond basic formatting and spell checking, or one of the other components of office (excel, outlook 'classic', etc).
