Novell brought out the 5.1+ upgrade. Indeed, I bought it directly
from them. 5.1+ was a bug fix to 5.1 and added 6.0's faxing
capabilities. Corel undoubtedly bought it. At one time they
announced they were going to keep it in production (it doesn't
take much to keep something in production), but they probably
have since decided that the number of 8088s and 286s that would
want a fresh copy is too small to bother with. Too bad.
