Sorry Mr. Bean no hurt intended.

What I mean by Bad is your choice of words towards MikeC in your MEAN BEAN days. I believe you are not one to make a habit of chewing out others with bad vocabulary and you accidentally slipped at that time. I absolutely do not blame you for being upset with Corel then and now.

Mike is not the only person to blame for Corel's poor performance of late. Of late covers the last two or so years. The intention to raise Corel to a higher level with the aquisiton of WP was very well intended. The problem came when Mike and a few others realized some of the execs did not have the muster. I think this is an honest mistake made but not an excuse. Perhaps you recall the exit of one VP who had been for years selling a product which sold itself. This is the Heat in the Kitchen thing. Corel unfortunetly did not house all of the required talents to compete in the office suite market.

Corel's products are perfectly fine. Pun intended. What Corel needs is a professional, experienced, proven and successful Marketing department.

Holding.
