Fourth years, it was first released in 1984. I had a CPM card for my Franklin clone that came with WordStar. I just used the standard Apple Writer, or whatever Franklin renamed it. At university starting in 1986 I just took my Apple ][ floppy and a 3.5 one formatted for Apple ][c & Mac and do a juggle the files over and typeset the papers using the Mac. So I never used WordStar.
