Who owns WordPerfect - Apple II and IIGS? - REWARD!



The search for the REAL copyright holder/holders of WordPerfect for the Apple II
and IIGS continues ! Today I talked by voice with the original 'Quality Software'
staff that did Bag of Tricks and Bag of Tricks II, etc. I spoke with both Don
Worth and Bob Christenson. I was advised that this 'Quality Software' DID NOT every
buy or hold the copyright to WordPerfect for the Apple II and IIGS.

I've checked throughly also with the staff of SQC (formerly Quality Computers),
in hoped that they might be the company that held the copyright to the programs.
Same answer came back  - no we DO NOT hold the copyright to WordPerfect for the
Apple II and IIGS.

So, if Corel, Novell, etc. have now stated to me via email reply that they DO NOT
hold the copyright to WordPerfect for the Apple II and IIGS - then WHO DOES?
Their legal dept. records indicate the WordPerfect for the Apple II and IIGS programs
copyright was sold to a company named 'Quality Software'. I've checked every WWW
listing for all such names I could find, contacted them all and they all told me
they DO NOT hold the copyright, have never bought the rights to such programs and
don't know anything about it.

I still have a strong desire to find the copyright holder for WordPerfect for the
Apple II and IIGS !  So, I've made arrangements with the anonymous financial
backer of my web sites to offer a $100 reward for conclusive proof from the
WordPerfect for the Apple II and IIGS copyright holders - whoever they may be.
When I receive valid contact and proof from the REAL copyright holders of
WordPerfect for the Apple II and IIGS, the $100 reward is yours.

Send your reply on this offer to:
