I now hold 25,200 shares of Corel. I'm in at about 2.50 ave. I have a difficult time understanding how a company with so many brilliant software engineers and established Software products can't move ahead. I suspect, if you take a close look at the downturn timing, 1995 or so, you will see the Microsoft Office Software Giant moving into the Marketplace. What will happen, to Corel, if Microsoft is forced to spin off the Windows Software side of their business, or better yet the complete OTHER Software side and sit on only the Windows Operating system business? Will the spun off company still dominate as fiercely??? Will they engage, themselves, in battle? I can't imagine the courts leaving this Monster in one piece. It would be pleasant to see a fairly Level playing field. I'll sit and wait for a while!!! seabrass
