Maybe/maybe not some us remember the netware days, and the days when<br>wordperfect was the 'thing'.&nbsp;&nbsp;I imagine in five years time novell will<br>be wondering 'wow how did that happen' and Novell will be once again<br>trying to redefine 'Novell'.
<br></blockquote></div><br>Yeah, but you can't completely blame Novell for WordPerfect. The problem with WordPerfect was that at first, it didn't really transition gracefully from DOS&nbsp; to Windows. And thats where MS Word gobbled up market share. Blame the Wordperfect developers more than Novell marketing for that one. Just my opinion.
