Just found this on Linux Home site: Sat, 29 Jan 2000 02:43:48pm "Corel channeled its considerable application expertise into a Linux release that marks a turning point for the OS industry. Corel Linux OS Deluxe is the first Linux -- in fact, the first Unix of any kind -- that can realistically take the place of a Windows or Macintosh desktop. It has a few warts, but Corel's Linux debut is a stunner." "For employees who do most of their work in office-productivity applications and on the Web, Corel Linux is an excellent platform to deploy. The support costs for the Corel Linux OS promise to be lower than for Windows, with an automated system-update utility and an interface that makes the transition from Windows or the MacOS painless." "Also, Corel Linux OS is significantly more affordable than a copy of Windows 2000 Professional upgrade ($219), plus Office 2000 Professional upgrade ($349). You'll pay $568 for that combo, compared to $89.95 for Corel Linux OS Deluxe. With its Windows ease of use and Linux power, Corel Linux OS Deluxe makes sense both technically and financially."
