DRAW 7: Three grains of salt and two thumbs up

I know I shouldnt do this. Its really against my better judgment, and three years ago, I got burned pretty badly. I remember it well. I was writing for a local computer journal here in Northern California, when a new version of CorelDRAW was released. I agreed to write about it before I really knew how it was faring in the user community. Having visited my archives, I can see that to republish any part of that article from three years ago might do irreparable damage to my professional reputation. Oh well, here goes...

"It's not enough to say that Version 4.0 is Corel's most dramatic upgrade to CorelDRAW. This new release is one of the most ambitious ever made to any program. Once DRAW 4.0 gets mileage under its electronic belt, we think its users will benefit greatly from the dozens of new features .... Version 4.0 promises unprecedented potential for the Windows-based illustrator seeking better, smarter, and more automatic tools for producing modern art."
