WoW Robert! .... (pause)..... I certainly feel for the people that got
burned here (what else can I say...). "That" is one helluva article,
I must say. The only time I ever got involved with something close to
this was "Mediavision" (if anybody remembers them) - #2 to Creative
Labs in the sound card market. They went "poof" right off the charts.
Leo -- Mr. Bean: I think I'm gonna think some more (even sub '$1.50
don't look to good to me right now).
BP Ritchie: I hope you took a small "swallow" the other day my friend.
Thanks for this post Robert.
Regards, ...Joe

If you have the stomach, read this:

As I said:

$1.50 by New Year's Day!!!!

WP is gone, CorelDraw will follow if they don't get their act together.

Fire Cowpland, close the Utah facility, sell WP for $5-$10 bucks over the web. Give WP 5.0 away for free, give CorelDraw 5.0 away for free too. Fire all the middle of the road programmers/employees and use some of the savings to keep key personnel. Forget about the NC thing. But hey! appart from that, they don't need to change anything else.
