This article originally cited January as the date of the CD
release. Newsgroup postings have stated that it will happen in
February, not January.
The popular British PC magazine PC Plus has announced on their
news group that they have negotiated a one off deal with Star
Division to include the full StarOffice suite on the cover CD of
their February issue. PC Plus has started significant support for
Linux since they included SuSE 5.2 on their October cover disk.
Increased sales of the January magazine will only increase their
coverage and benefit Linux in the UK.
