glad you feel that way. Even if Linux is marginally succesfull it is huge growth potential for WordPerfect in the corporate sector. Corel is first to market with the Linux product and will probably be the only name brand for a while. Corel doesn't need Linux to take over the world in order to benefit. Linux will easily give Corel a couple more million users through Linux. The Netwinder and NC products will probably evolve into ISP server products and mission critical servers. If I were CEO of Corel and was desperate for new growth areas in high tech the first places to look would be everywhere microsoft is not, thin client computing and open source software. A bit of a gamble? Yes, but logical. Double digits by mid Feb and a big piece of humble pie for you. I am sure they have a few more OEM agreements and partnerships in the works, to boot.

cheers
