I am not sure. I had thought so, but others, particularly John
Ranger, have reported that it is not. Version 6.2 for DOS is
available from Corel, but that requires a 386, I
believe--certainly it requires a 286, and won't run on a 8088.
It comes with the complete suite, which some here have complained
about, but Corel's point is that it costs so much to market that
they might as well give the whole suite as try to have two or
more packages.
