Corel Office for Java
An office suite for the Java environment originally released in beta form in late 1996 as WordPerfect Suite in Java but it got such negative feedback due to the size and slowness of the application that caused all Network Computer vendors to reject the application suite, and the announcement and release of the much more lightweight and nimble Lotus Kona caused Corel to rethink the applications, slim them down considerably and release it again early 1997 as "Corel Office for Java" and it was frequently referred to by the company as simply "Corel for Java".
