>But isn't this increase "elastic"? Poeple say: "I can afford to try Corel because it's so cheap", but then they see no real difference and
switch back to Word.

By the time the next upgrade cycle comes around, and if Corel users do decide to go back to MS as you suggest, COSFF may have already had an upward run, in which case the stock is also going to be elastic based on short-term revenue improvement.

Might as well ride it up if the opportunity presents itself.

BTW, do you think Office 98 will come out before WordPerfect Suite 9 and snatch-up all the new WordPerfect Suite 8 users ?

And don't you think that new WP8 users who migrate from Office 95 will see a difference ?

The existing WP7 users who switch to WP8 are probably going to stay, since they could have gone to Office 97.

ah
