“Corel President and Chief Executive Officer Michael Cowpland on
Tuesday outlined some of the reasons the Canadian applications
company is betting heavily on the Linux operating system.”
“Speaking at a keynote address here at Comdex, Cowpland
explained his company’s strategy around Linux, praising it as an
operating system that offers freedom and reliability.”
“Corel on Monday launched Corel Linux OS for desktops. The OS
will ship early next year, Cowpland said Tuesday.”
“Linux is very reliable,” said Cowpland. The best part is
its users face “no threats to remove Windows licenses or increases
in license fees.“
