Was pricing out a new system one of the items I was pricing in was Corel

I clicked on the download link and it much to my surprise it was $49.95,
sold by Amazon.

So I downloaded it and activated it and it appears to be happy.

I don't know if it's a promo or if someone at Amazon just plain screwed
up, but at that price it's worth getting especially if you've never
actually played with Painter before.

Note that this does not affect my plans for the new system--you're
allowed to install on up to three boxen as long as only one is in use at
a time.

Note that that is the Windows version--the Mac version appears to be
listed for full price.


I wonder if it's a typo. It is strange that the educational version
costs more than the standard version.

It does indeed seem to be legit. the Corel site lists it for $199.
Perhaps there is a Win10 compatibility issue. However, for fifty bucks,
it's worth a shot. Just installed it, and got n update message.
Installed the update and all seems well,

Thanks for the info.
