: I have a friend who is a CorelDraw poweruser. He is currently running
: OS/2 on his machine and CorelDraw v 4 in the WinOS
: emulation. Unfortunately he is thinking about using the Win95 version
: of CorelDraw v 7. What should I recommend? The software I know that is
: closest to his needs is xfig (I am not into graphics). 

: Any recommedations will be greatly appreciated.

There is a version of CorelDraw for Unix available, costs about the same.
I forgot the name of the company, maybe someone else knows.  I do know that
as of about a month ago it was available for many of the Unix platforms,
from talking to the sales rep...

You might try Corel's home page, I think the link was there.  Sorry, I
didn't write the info down...
