Are you saying this implies bad things for SuSE? Well, I think
WordPerfect's problems were mostly caused by Microsoft Word (and Office)
and DR-DOS was also damaged by Microsoft Windows. Unix is doing just
fine. Someone just said the other day that Ximian is great, didn't they?
So is Novell really harming products?
Also, if you look back at a list of software products a company handled
over the years, most of them will probably be extinct today. That's no
one's fault.
