Corel, Inprise deal faces legal challenge canoe.ca In his suit, Mr. Coates alleged that "at the time the merger agreement was signed, the price of Corel's common stock was based on Corel's misrepresentation of its fourth quarter results for fiscal year 1999 and did not reflect the poor results Corel expected for the first quarter of fiscal year 2000."

Scott, Where are you getting this Coke/Pepsi nonsense? Corel sells an aging office suite they acquired eons ago from a company that acquired it eons before they dumped it on Corel -- Novell. Microsoft sells on the order of 25 billion worth of product and half of that is from the office suite. That's $12,000,000,000 each year from the office products. Corel counts itself lucky to sell 1% or less of that. You're playing the mind game that Corel is constantly engaged in: pretending to be relevant. The 7-Eleven on the corner probably brings in more revenue than Corel. What you call Coke/Pepsi is Coke/Danny. Danny is a small two-store grocery chain sells cheap, store-labeled soda at a loss. Please stop playing these fantasy games.
