Harmon:

This is just my naivete showing again, but what about the Corel
Draw v. 3.2 (if I remember correctly) for OS/2 that has been
advertised for some time? Isn't that a real OS/2 application? I
was thinking of buying it, since I have seen a number of
statements from mouths other than those of the horse that Corel
(or Pet Dog Food, or whoever owns it now) is well along on an
OS/2 update, and apparently v. 5 for
Windows is so buggy that most serious users stick with an earlier
version. That, at least, is what people on the Corel Draw
newsgroup say. It seems like a good reason to stockpile the
earlier version. I have already bought one of the last
comprehensive books on v. 3 that is still available.

What say you, onegai-itashimasu.
