Corel aquires Magix!

[Ross Macintosh]

But it isn't a joke!!!

Here's the correct Press Release that just appeared. It is a sad day in Xara-Xara Land. I wonder if Corel will keep Charles and crew? I somehow doubt Charles will want to work for Corel.

Someone has WAY too much time on their hands

Good fun Ross..

Indeed.. nice use of the new HTML export functionality though!

Too much time? The sophisticated press release just took three or four minutes in the XXP4 beta. Would have taken less time if I could type faster. It's the first time I put a xara-generated page online. Very easy. Just a straightforward upload of the .htm file & the htm_files folder to my server. No muss or fuss.

Great press release!!! Had me giggling outloud at the office.

Ross!

I have not been around for some time, but just came back since I purchased XX4P.

Reading your post made my heart almost stop.
I *perfectly* remember how it was when we had Corel "taking charge" (or better NOT taking charge).

Please don't do that again to me, I am old, my heart is weak !!
But I absolutely LOVE your press release !!!

Ross, you should be banned for making this thread. Brought back a painful memory. I'll have to contact a moderator. Can you ban yourself?

LOL

[Ross Macintosh]

No, not grounds for self-banishment. The thread did get a one-star rating - just rewards I guess.
