I am the bearer of some sad news for Corel Draw for Mac users. It has been axed/discontinued by Corel. I hope, just like with Indesogn Corel and Adobe will offer a crossgrade deal:

The reverse happned- mac version becomes windows only. Rember when the PC Logic versions disappeared 2 years agoo-wish Apple release them again (as there's a dearth of pro ausio software for Windows). Arts & Letters (draw type software)should have a Mac version.

There have been other mentions of this - see here (http://forums.macrumors.com/showthread.php?s=&threadid=55594&highlight=corel%2A). I went to the CorelDrawGS 12 launch on Wednesday and they didn't make much mention of the lack of mac version, they probably didn't want anything negative to be said. The PC version looks good though, but I didn't know what the lastversion looked like.

Professional artists are the main market for products like this, and most are using Freehand and Illustrator.
CorelDraw has always been the proverbial "red-haired stepchild".
