OTTAWA--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Sept. 22, 2004--Corel today announced that it
has won the coveted "Best of RetailVision Awards"(TM) for Best

Selected by decision makers from the Top 100-level retailers across
North America, the "Best of RetailVision Awards" honor vendors who
consistently demonstrate both innovation and leadership in the retail
marketplace.
Corel was recognized for both of its upcoming fall releases: Corel(R)

awareness and product credibility in the channel. We're extremely

vendors because they are voted on by the top retailers in North
America," said Pete Prentice, senior director for RetailVision. "For
both winners and nominees, the awards carry the prestige and the
confirmation that a vendor's products and strategies are succeeding in
the consumer channel."

Is this like the American Heart Assoc. awarding a Heart Healthy symbol if
you pay enough to them?
Actually, I got the very old basic version of Painter with my Graphire and
it's a lot of fun to play with.
