Corel Retrenching On Linux, Office Software
The embattled software vendor said it will focus mainly on its graphics tools as part of a restructuring that includes plans to spin off its Linux distribution business and to target WordPerfect sales at existing users.
Targeting existing WP users? They're dead meat. They just haven't fallen over yet.
<snip> Bad Jerry. Bad! ;-) Observe, this WordPerfect user has a pulse & is therefore not dead. QED. I hope Corel make their next release in Q2 of WordPerfect Office 4 Tux, a tad more stable. While thier current version is usable, it is so in the same sense as a Borg OS, viz surprises unpleasently. Hence, I often use WordPerfect 8 for Tux, the commercial one. I also wished they would release the patch upgrade to 8.1, but they have not. Grrrrr.... *BFN* Greek Geek :-) Man who falls in vat of molten optical glass makes spectacle of self.
