Why wouldn't Corel do the port? What OS common on the Alpha? I thought COSFF already did a UNIX port, and runs fine on NT. I don't understand.

In the simple terms within my comprehension:
i] You port an operating system to a processor/architecture/box.
ii] You port applications to the OS, which thru the API does the grunt work.

So what is this "port to the Alpha" nonsense?? Or is my viewpoint all screwed up???
