Corel® Paint it!™: Quickly transform digital photos into unique, hand-painted works of art in three simple steps with Parent Tested Parent Approved photo-painting software.

I was lucky enough to get to try out this new Corel bundle that I think would be great for a home office.  I really do not have a high need for the Corel calculate or Corel Show just because I do not do too much office type stuff on my computer, being a stay at home mom I do not need to use it much.  I did however use the Corel Write for word processing just the other day to make up a nice sheet with all Kennedy's meds and feeding schedules.  This was pretty easy to use, especially once you play around some with all the different functions.  We know I love the Corel Paint it! as I have done a seperate review for this and still love this product !  You can see my review for that by clicking here.  The last part the Corel Photo Album Deluxe I did not install on my computer.  It says on the packaging that it was not designed for windows 7 and we recently got a new Windows 7 computer.  It is compatible with Windows xp and vista.  All the other programs in the Corel Home suite are compatible with windows xp, vista, and 7. 

I think the price is pretty good too....the suggested retail price is $69.99, which is what the Corel Home office is priced at by itself.  It is like you are getting the other two for free!
