Fred , I agree with you somewhate. Yes its missleading , using it with wine. Good news it weather or not it works. I am willing to deal with it under wine. I will want to first find out it it will work with my color epson 1160 printer. I have wp8 linux , and use the pass through postscript , but it will not print in color , and the color selection id grayed out itn the passthrogh postscript print drive. Sucks that it wont suport color. A unified code will mean that we can get a "linux version" as soon as the next version , and if it helps with the drvers dearth or lack of and solves it I am for it. I realy cant wait for there linux dev tools a la delphi for linux , So am willing to cut some slack for a while while they get there shit together. Wasent long ago there was the fialsco over the code for the os , and they finaly released it. At 12:33 PM 3/31/2000 -0500, Fred A. Miller wrote:

Their soon-to-be-released Office 20000 Suite is NOT a native Linux Suite, and in fact, the code was NOT ported to Linux. It's a modified 'Bloze version (all versions now have common code) that runs under Wine, which is shipped WITH the Suite. Now, for some this is fine...not a problem. I guess for me, I object to Corel's giving all this "lip service" to supporting Linux, and producing a LINUX VERSION of it's office suite, then having to read a review of the product to find out that it's NOT Linux code at all. I guess is an issue of honesty, if nothing else.
