It is so funny - if you read about today Apple's introduction of
iMac - the name AppleWorks has returned.
First we have AppleWorks from Apple, then a company (cannot remember
its name, StyleWare?) bring us GS Works, then GS Works was bought
by Claris and bought us AppleWorks GS. After 2 revisions of AppleWorks
GS, Claris no loner working on it and work on the Mac version that
was called ClarisWorks. Now Claris is brought back to Apple, and the
ClarisWorks was called AppleWorks.
What a big cycle! I like the name too. I believe ClarisWorks was
created by the same group of programmer who brought us MultiScribe
GS and AppleWorks GS, if memory serves me right.
Long live AppleWorks!
