Agreed. And since this is release 1.0, I would wait until 1.1 or 1.2
before using.
The VERY GOOD THING about this is the amount of fixing that will occur on
WINE due to this. I expect WINE will firm up very rapidly now. Much
faster than before. Linux will assuredly benefit from this. Soon,
m$ win will not be required to run the thousands of apps out there.
Three cheers for Corel!

about the problems stemming from their decision to do their Linux office

there would like to get their hands on an alternative to M$ Office, I
HIGHLY recommend Corels WordPerfect Office 2000 for Linux. I also use M$
Word 2000 for Windows, and I think that Corel just blew them out of the
water!!!
