CorelDraw 9 compatibility.

Just thought I'd let anyone who is wondering know that CorelDraw 9
(the entire suite) installs perfectly on Windows 7 x64. I tried to
install CorelDraw 8, and couldn't make it run properly -- it
always gave errors. I had a copy of CorelDraw 9 kicking around and
figured I'd give it a go ... what the heck, right? ... to my
surprise, it installed and runs flawlessly. I did omit the
multimedia add-on, so I can't say for sure that particular add-on
will install without a burp, but CorelDraw 9 and Corel Photo-Paint
9, along with other add-ons in the Corel suite, run without a hitch.

I don't have CorelDraw, (I use Xara Xtreme for vector drawing) but do use
Paint Shop Pro.
PSPX2 runs better in Windows 7 than it did in XP, although some plugins,
which haven't been supported for a long time,refuse to work.

When CorelDraw 8 wouldn't work at all, I figured no way is the
next version up going to install, but surprise, it did.

Most software runs fine on W7 x64. The only thing I can't get to
work is my Epson scanner, and that's only because Epson never got
around to writing an x64 driver for it, all through the life of Vista.
