Yes. I actually purchased the "personal" edition. It is worth it. The
conversion utilities in it are far better than in the "demo" version. (And
you can complain). This version also has a much install script/gui, I think.
if you are like me, the primary reason to have it is to open the .doc files
which you just can't afford to hit "D" on...
I just mounted the CD, and ran "sh /cdrom/install.wp". I then installed it
onto my system. I then copied my "/sandel/3rd/Corel/WP8" to my notebook. It
is running now in 1.4Q.
