Re: [PLUG] Corel and Linux Force

[Chris Fearnley <cjf@netaxs.com>]

Hi,

Thanks Chuck.

The LinuxForce story is told in a Philadelphia Inquirer article,
http://www.phillynews.com/inquirer/99/Jul/29/tech.life/LINUX29.htm,
the deal with Corel is described at
http://www.corel.com/news/1999/december/december_22b_1999.htm
and on our web page, http://www.LinuxForce.net

I just returned from a couple of days in Ottawa meeting Corel's sales,
technical support and product development people.  I am very impressed
with their organization.

Now to get back to my 1200 message backlog ...
