We all know where Corel got WordPerfect and Quattro Pro: Novell, which sold the integrated suite as WordPerfect Suite. Corel added "Presentations" and some other stuff, added hundreds of excellent features into it, and sold it as Corel WordPerfect Suite version 6. Novell had the suite up to version 5. Dell of course has always been the JIT model, which has NOTHING to do with bundled software, so get off that kick. The FACT is, that Dell and Gateway could offer PCs bundled with Corel WordPerfect Suite 2000 as the only application program, but MS exclusive agreements don't allow them, so they actually can't. Smells strongly of abuse of monopoly power to me.
