I remember reading an article, years ago, by Chris Bidmead, where he mentioned that people were often surprised to hear that he didn't use Microsoft Word or WordPerfect. The quote was something like "I'm a writer. What on earth would I want a word processor for?"

It sounded odd at the time, and it sounds just as odd now, because that's what writers are supposed to use. When you stop and think about it, though, it can make a fair bit of sense.

What's wrong with word processors for writing?
