I only have Note Pad and Word Pad, I want a better program for writing with spell and grammar check. Will this program work for that?

Yes. Wordperfect is a full up "word processing" program, and includes spell check and grammer checking, without some of the bells, whistles and folderol which accompanies Word. I think the transition will be simple enough, but then, I started with WP when it was WordStar.

Either, depending on the OS. It works equally awful if you use MS Office. Use Open Office and it actually runs well.

It comes loaded with Notepad and Wordpad as part of Windows 7, but they're pretty basic. I downloaded the Libre Office suite, which is FREE, and has a very capable word processor (and spreadsheet, data base, drawing program and more).

I haven't used that one. It does type in any window I've used it in. But getting complicated with it is a lot easier in a text window than something like Pages with a lot of commands.

The Eee PC does not have MS Word right out of the box. You must go install it. It does have MS Works, which has a word processor, but its not as powerful as Word.

I bought Final Draft 9 as a download through Amazon. I feel 99% certain that it was available in multiple languages, and you choose which language at the time of download. I also think it offers spell checker in those languages also.

Wordpad and notepad are about it. They provide basic functionality but definitely nothing fancy. I use Apache Open Office (free)!

I think a pencil and note pad will work better for you. This device is just a gimmick. It works well and I like mine but it was an expensive toy.

I've used the OCR and it works reasonably well. The only issue i have with it is that it creates blocks of text in Word that have to be treated individually rather than as an entire document.

No .it does not . It has a pretty good wordpad . Word cost $140. This computer is pretty much useless. Any Notebok or laptop today is a much better choice

This is a great program for anyone who wants to learn how to type. Bought this program for the family and our teenage son is now a wiz typing on his desktop and laptop computer. He now types around 60-70 wpm. My wife uses the program also just to keep up her speed. She loves it. Good luck.

Thats what I use it for and I love it. Can use huge worksheets without scrolling, and easily have 4-6 pages up in Word at the same time. Great for editing.Be careful as you MUST have a Dual Link DVI port, or Active Displayport adapter and a computer that supports the default resolution as that is the only resolution.

It will if it is also for writing, not just touch. Will help when used with Windows Journal.

I've never been able to load to it. It's a simple word processor like "notepad" (it's only got rudimentary stuff like create and export). Editing (on a four sentence old school display) is virtually impossible. That's why it's mostly used as a fast drafting tool.

I'm not sure. This is good for my kids. I bought it for my 6th grader since regular free typing sites weren't enough and he was just using them to play around. My 10th grader also uses this and her typing has improved for easier writing assignments.

Can you put a word processor on it? I don't want to do all my writing within google docs.

Pretty well - I've had some words misspelled throughout the document but easily corrected. It is better than retyping an entire document. Use the Microsoft Word spell check to catch all of the small issues.
