Corel To Test WordPerfect For Linux
prostoalex writes "CNET News says Corel will introduce a native Linux version of its WordPerfect Office product on April 15th . This will be a pilot project, as Corel executives want to find out whether it's worth competing with the other products (namely StarOffice and OpenOffice)." The piece mentions: "Corel previously produced a Linux-native version of WordPerfect 8, released in 1998, and offered a Linux-translated version of WordPerfect 9 in 2000, when Linux was still a cornerstone of the company's broader strategy."

teh wors joke i haev ever herd. i fully intend to do yuor butt
I just heard some sad news on talk radio - Horror/Sci Fi writer Stephen King was found dead in his Maine home this morning. There weren't any more details. I'm sure everyone in the Slashdot community will miss him - even if you didn't enjoy his work, there's no denying his contributions to popular culture. Truly an American icon.
Probably this will be written in Russia soon with the rest of the B shelf software.
5.1 was the best version ever, by concesus.
This goes to show that programmers are more valuable than the programs they produce. And that the "India pipe dream" is ignorant.
Yeah, and 90% of all statistics are made up on the spot. Source please?
HAND.
depending on the numbers used, windows is inherently more secure than windows.
43% of statistics are made up on the spot. Only 3 out of 10 numers you see are actually collected from a well designed study.
> You're being serious?
Yes.
> Did your GIMP installation look anything like this?
Holy crap, it looked nothing like that! Whenever I ran GIMP I just got one box with menus and a text box that showed the currently-running commands. Perhaps I'll have to try it out again.
