I imagine a lot of big law offices still have computers with WordPerfect on them so they can read old files if necessary.

WordPerfect is still maintained by Corel. The most recent release was in May.

They also maintain PaintShop Pro, WinDVD, and WinZip. I think they're running a retirement home for distinguished software products.

Corel is the Microfocus of client software!

The thing is I get why people hang on to COBOL or Attachmate. The company licensing WinZip is the puzzler to me! :)
