That was about the time Novell bought WP. At PC Expo Novell was

denied existed. With their permission, I modified a template and their
system crashed. It took them almost half a day to get it running again.
I remember when WordPerfect was the king of the DOS world. But when
Windows 3.1 came out and became popular, they were late to the game.
And it seemed like they never really "got" Windows. And everybody who's
had the product since then has sucked with it. That's why it has about
..00001% market share...it's a crappy product.
