For one my opinion on Corel are pretty well known if you've been reading
their user newsgroup around january-march (just search for posts from
Deep Blue and Mircea Luca-that'll be myself).:-)
On a more serious note though they are selling their Linux operation
hence
the conclusion that it's dead.The non-standard way it's bad if you don't
follow the fastly changing Linux "market" and you don't fix problems as
they
occur (like the installer and kde).But enough on Corel Linux,let it die
in peace.
It was a "good enough" distro for playing with Linux for a couple of
months at newbie level.As soon as you start to understand your way
around it's time to move on.:-)
If you consider a career move just read the requirements for LPI
(http://www.lpi.org ) to make yourself an idea and don't forget that
those requirements are a bare minimum.Graphical tools are nice but most
of the time
when you hit a problem the shell and the basic knowledge of how things
are working are your only friends-try runing Debian unstable(sid) for a
while to see what I mean.
All the best
