Although I don't own Corel anymore (praise the Lord), I was angry when I read the cover of the current PC Magazine.

OFFICE 2000
10 REASONS TO UPGRADE

and in small text below "plus New SmartSuite and WordPerfect Office"

Since when did Ziff-Davis become a marketing arm of Microsoft? Inside, the editor-in-chief, no less, in the article concludes that MS Office is the clear choice by assembling a chart of all the areas in which Microsoft made improvements and comparing Lotus and Corel in just those areas. Corel's Preview feature will affect 80-90% of suite users, Microsoft's Web publishing enhancements about 5%.

At least Lotus and Novell (who is also regularly screwed by Z-D) don't regularly advertise in PC Magazine. Only Corel is willing to "feed the hand that bites it."
