1. How can it be $300 more when it only costs just over $300 altogether? I
think I paid about $330 for CorelDraw at Softwarehouse (now CompUSA) and
that was last year. I know list is probably $595 or something, but who
cares? Besides version 2.0 is orgasmic in terms of features and useability,
and the rags seem to agree, the reviews I have seen top-rank it over the rest.
