==Novell's exit== The release of Windows 95 in August 1995 was the beginning of the end for Novell and its plans to compete with Microsoft. Not only did Microsoft release a new operating system, but Microsoft also released new versions of Word and Excel to accompany it. Sales of Novell PerfectOffice (and Lotus applications as well) sank to almost nothing while sales of the Microsoft products were huge.{{citation needed|date=September 2008}} Within three months, Novell announced they were going to sell their applications to someone (eventually that proved to be [[Corel]]). By mid-1996, Microsoft had 95% of the market for business applications. {{As of|2005}}, Microsoft still dominates the market for Windows business application software,{{citation needed|date=September 2008}} although Quattro Pro and WordPerfect, which pre-dated the MS Office 4.2 suite, are still both updated and sold.
