Oh? I don't know they were different. I actually have TW80.

Other than font, what else was different?

I remember using Telewriter 64 on my CoCo2 and didn't fancy the VDG 
screen mode and font. The CoCo3 came out soon after and I jumped at VIP 
Desktop and used that. I ignored Telewriter 128 because of my 
impressions of T64.

Both VIP and TW80 are good wordpros.

I'm keen to see what was available under OS-9. Stylograph and Window Writer.
