Also, in ten years you won't be able to read any of today's Works, Word, or Wordpro files. Odds are you will be able to decipher both PDF and RTF if you can still read the medium.

But you will always be able to read plain ascii text because there will

likewise html and graphics display (.jpg, .gif) and the ability of html to
format and display
a publication similar to its printed version. Any upgrades of this technology
