| Corel may indeed have a product called PhotoPaint. But they also have | (or had) a product call Paintshop Photo Pro. I am staring at it in a | box on my bookshelf. I think I paid $25 for it in a Black Friday deal a | few years ago, but never got around to installing it.
Yes, they bought it from the original authors, Jasc, some years ago. They still sell it, but have changed the versions. It's currently PSP X6, rather than just a version number.
I still use PSP5 for basic editing. It does what I need. I once decided to update to PSP7 but was very disappointed with it. They had stuffed it full of nonsense bloat. (Simply drawing a rectangle had become a complex task, cluttered with choices to use stock backgrounds and such.) So I went back to PSP5.
