<P>Sometime in August, WordPerfect 7.0 for Linux should ship. It should
|
|
be available from
|
|
<A HREF="http://www.sdcorp.com/wpunix.html">SDC</A> for
|
|
about $149.99 for a competitive upgrade or $199.99 retail.
|

<P>

|
<P>Corel is working on porting their entire office suite to Java and
|
|
releasing it as Corel Office for Java(TM). This currently is in Beta
|
|
and works on Linux (I tried the first beta -- very slow). Check out
|
|
<A HREF="http://officeforjava.corel.com/about.htm">http://officeforjava.corel.com/about.htm</A> for more information.
|
|
This promises to be something to watch.
|
|

|
|
<P>SDC is currently working on WPLinux 8 with an expected beta mid 1998
|
|
and a release following by about 5 months. SDC has indicated that
|
|
if there is not sufficient demand for WP for Linux, they will probably
|
|
not ship it (they already stopped shipping for SGI and UNIXWare) --
|
|
<B>so if you like it, buy it!</B>
