Hmm. DAZ recently acquired Bryce from Corel, and now Corel has acquired JASC. Maybe DAZ should have bought JASC first... ;-) On a serious note, I can't say I'm terribly impressed with Corel. Yes, they have done a fine job with Painter, but they've allowed the Kai's Power Tools filters (wonderful tools!) to more or less languish, and look what they did to poor Bryce! Also, WordPerfect used to be my favorite work processor, I just loved it. Now it's a bad knockoff of Microsoft Word (sort of like "New Coke", it's neither as good as the original nor the same as the competition). I hope Corel actually treats PSP with some dignity and respect. It's a fine program. bonni
