Corel Corp., the company which purchased WordPerfect from Novell last year, will soon release a new version of the product, WordPerfect Suite 8, a response to the recent release of Microsoft Office 97. Unlike previous versions of WordPerfect that consisted of word processing software alone, the suite will include a wide range of office applications. It will also integrate Netscape's browser, e-mail, and Web development tools-specifically Netscape 4.0, the version dubbed "Communicator."
WordPerfect Suite 8 is expected to be in computer stores by April and the upgrade price probably will be around $90.
