On one hand, it's only USD $30.  On the other hand, I think it's about
3 years late to market and costs $30 more than OpenOffice.org, which gives
you a whole office suite, not just a word processor.  Or if you're going
to spend money, $70 gets you the full Star Office suite.  I predict
Corel is going to have a tough time marketing this to the general Linux
community.  Their niche might be Linux-curious law offices, since I
understand Word Perfect is used even today by more than a few law firms.
