WordPerfect could kill Bill

Well ... we live in exciting times for open source adoption. At least in Europe where the European Commission has said that open source is cheaper than the alternatives: http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/technology/6270657.stm

That should help to make a strong case for many businesses. Now we have something to back up our claims.

I think, today is PDF the best thing we can offer. I like extendedPDF with OO. And Scribus also.

Wordperfect is awsome, Version 9 which is almost identical to the current version runs OK in RHAT8 and Corel LInux 1.2. It does best in Corel Linux 1.2 and this is where I prefer to use it. I may work on making it work in WINE in the future if anyone has any help this would be nice.

For anyone wanting tips on how to run Corel Linux and Wordperfect on newer systems just email me and I will divulge my secrets.

Anyone who stays with Windows and Microsft Office is just lazy and likes being owned in my book.

Hey, do you know how to get the native Windows OLE2 dll and registry patch into wine? That's the one component that has always kept me from being able to run WP11 on Linux. I've heard once that's done, everything works except printer support (since WP has always used its own printer drivers).
