If corel was offering linux or any sort of linux related products anytime in this millenium, they hid it amazingly well. I remember corel linux which was something of a precursor to distros like linspire, but that was a product based on the 2.0 kernel IIRC. I had used word perfect 8 for linux and liked it, but the eagerly anticipated corel office 2000 for linux turned out to be a sluggish kluge of a windoze app running under wine. That was the last gasp for corel as far as I can remember. Didn't they get a big investment from microsoft around that time, and announce that they were getting out of the linux business? If so, what is the motivation for another announcement, years afterwards, when nobody even associates them with linux anymore? |
