We used Ventura (through v4.2) for years and found it adequate for most
everything pre-online. When v5.0 came out, the bugs were so prevalent
that a Ventura Bugs magazine was published for a couple of years.
Version 6.0 was also pretty bad. I've heard 7.0 is okay, but I'll never
take the chance again.
