I think Applixware is free for personal use. You have to pay the license fee if you use it for your business. You should be able to download it from their site, http://www.applix.com/applixware/ . Its a demo version you can download, I just checked it. Might be worth trying though. The price on a boxed set is $99. -----Original Message----- From: Michael Scottaline <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> >"Bluebottle" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > >> --------------------------------------------- >> Attachment: >> MIME Type: multipart/alternative >> --------------------------------------------- >Have noticed this on the web and it claims to run under Linux.
