Been eyeing Corel for awhile. Is it time to buy? The stock certaintly can't go much lower, right? By the way when will Corel release A NEW Wordperfect suite? I can get suite 8 for 50 bucks (academic version). Seemed a tad cheap. Thought a new one must be coming out soon. -Eddie

Alomex, you hyped Corel when it was far higher than it is today. You call it a dog when it is low and you sell it. You don't see this as a money-losing strategy? I sold Corel at the first sign of trouble and broke even. You in turn are severely underwater with your Corel strategy. But hey! I'm the one with the money-losing strategy. You once arrogantly bet Soup that Corel would double (at $6) before Apple (at $13) would. It is interesting to see your feeble mind at work. It was in fact soup who "arrogantly" proposed the bet: exchange2000.com I accepted the bet in ordinary language: exchange2000.com Not only that, but you said it in a public forum where thousands of people could potentially read about it. You were wrong. Dead wrong. Don't you feel like a jackass now? I see now that you believe yourself perfect. It all makes sense, JC stands for Jesus Christ. You make no mistakes, and if you did, you would feel like a jackass and shut up. Of course, you being on the red with Corel is not a mistake. Is a wise investment decision. At the very least, isn't it about time that you ate some humble pie and shut up? Funny how you jumped in just when I announced I was leaving this forum. If what you really wanted was for me to shut up, you would not have replied. But in fact, you are so sore from your Corel losses (congratulations!) and having lost the Apple argument (you're a genius!) with me that you have replied four times already. It is such a nice day outside... I'll leave you to enjoy your own bitterness. (Vanni, please send me a note when Cowpland quits or the suit proceeds will ya'? Have fun!)
