Writing all of his novels on an old word processor running in an old operating system means his books are well protected against hackers and viruses. That's because a computer running DOS these days is never connected to the internet. What a wise man !
And if you think Mr. Martin will get tired of writing his books on Wordstar, the old man has a message for you. ''Well, I really like it. I mean, it does everything I want a word processing program to do, and it doesn't do anything else. I don't want any help you know. I hate some of these modern systems, where you type a lowercase letter, and it become a capital. I don't want a capital letter. I know how to work the shift key.''
Word 4.0 was released in 1987. The word processor encompassed the popular WYSIWYG( What you see is what you get) tool, which printed out content(text and graphics) just the way they appeared onscreen.
