PROFILE |
 |
Corel's fling with Linux may be fleeting indeed. Faced with declining sales of its flagship WordPerfect office productivity software at the hands of Microsoft's Office, the company repackaged its corporate identity around being the premier software vendor for the Linux operating system, offering Linux OS, WordPerfect for Linux, and a stable of development tools. Corel has since announced plans to sell its Linux operations, focusing instead on its core WordPerfect and CorelDRAW products. In the wake of a failed merger with Inprise (now Borland), Corel was rescued with a cash infusion from archrival Microsoft, which owns a 25% non-voting stake. Founder and former CEO Michael Cowpland also owns a stake in Corel.
