@dx1@corsicanguppy Corel was the revolution we need on the Desktop distros. It was the first distro with a graphical installation (and an easy one). Corel just didn’t have the luck they needed, because it was released with KDE 1 with the corresponding qt libraries. KDE 2 was released just a year or less after the Corel Linux be released.
Corel was beautiful. It was, like gWave, ahead of its time.
And, being from Corel, it wasn’t only beautiful, but also tainted by PTSD from using CorelDRAW, which was so bad that the user needed to reboot after/while using it to reclaim leaked RAM.
Man, Corel Linux looks like a vibe. The box looks familiar but don’t think I ever used it.

It’s been over twenty-five years, but I still lust after Corel Linux
