Paint Shop Pro acquired by Corel

Jasc Software, maker of the venerable graphics program Paint Shop Pro, has been acquired by Corel, publisher of CorelDraw and WordPerfect. Jasc recently announced version 9 of Paint Shop Pro.

Yesterday, Corel issued a press release announcing the acquisition. Corel also published a letter to customers on Jasc’s website, using it as an opportunity to highlight the price differentials between Corel’s product lineup and those of competitors.

The end of an era. I’ve been using this excellent software since version 3 way back in the early 90s.
