Novell? Also isn't Corel in a completely different part of the world (Ottawa, Canada) than Wordperfect/Novell (Utah)?

- shaunxcode 18y agoGood call on the typo - and Corel bought Word Perfect at some point or the merged/regurgitated into each other how ever you want to look at it.
- ojbyrne 18y agoSure, just that the way you phrased it ("in the shadow of") suggests that Corel was in Utah.
- shaunxcode 18y agoOh I should have made that more clear. Corel was in utah (well a division of it at least) after they merged/bought word perfect. They basically changed the name on the business park to Corel and went about business as usual. And when I say in the shadow of I mean both figuratively and literally as the business park sat up on the hill overlooking my jr high and it felt like that was my destiny if I didn't want to work at Geneva Steel. Oddly I did work down by geneva steel as a vw mechanic before delving into computers full time.
