Hi Jim,
>>it will be interesting to see who buys Corel Video<<
Not so fast. They might actually have something there:
...Microsoft scared away a lot of players when it bundled NetMeeting into Internet Explorer for free. How does a company compete against free? Fortunately for Microsoft competitors, NetMeeting, as a software product, has had only limited success. The general Internet as a voice and/or video conferencing mechanism is still not ready for prime time. Intranets, Extranets and VPN's are another story. Company's like Cisco, Microsoft and Nortel seem to be betting billions of dollars that this is the future way to go. Corporations seem to want voice as good as the PSTN and IP network video conferencing considerable cheaper, more reliable and easier to use than ISDN H.320 video conferencing.
Thanks to the poster at this new thread #reply-7521199

<< A lot of strikes against the company >> ????
Jim , you are doing it again - you are watching a replay from last year! If you fast forward your VCR, you will see that Corel hit a triple in the bottom of the ninth and went on to win the TSE 300 batting crown. As a matter of fact, just yesterday , Corel's batting average went up 15% .
The hitters are really seeing the ball well - it probably looks like a giant slow motion APPLE coming down the centre of the plate .No wonder that the batting average is sky rocketing.

Ciao ! Phil.
