Willie, I followed WordPerfect Corp. closely, having a friend who wrote printer
drivers for them, and having almost all the PC-DOS software they sold. As I recall,
Novell bought all of WPCorp., and I know that they did not sell all to Corel, they
kept what was once called WP Library/Office/Groupwise, for example. Not that I have
all these machines, but what happened to WP for Amiga, Atari ST, Data General, and, of
course, Apple ][ both 8 and 6 bit? I don't know who owns the rights to those versions,
or a bunch of DOS/Windoze software that disappeared (like PlanPerfect and
DataPerfect.)
