I saw Corel Office running on a Linux box on the Corel stand. The Corel
person didn't do too much with it, but I checked with "free" how much
RAM was in the machine and was impressed, 128MB RAM which is becoming
the standard on mid-high end desktops.
In other words, I'd buy it.. if I had any use for it.. :)
