Hi Harry and Lynn, >From the main page of OOo, hit the "Get OpenOffice.org" button, and then choose the CD option, which will take you to this page: http://distribution.openoffice.org/cdrom/index.html#cdrom Simply scroll down the list of distributors to your country, and find one near you. Most distributors charge a token fee to cover their production and mailing expenses. And some include some extra Open Source software, by way of a bonus. The thinking is that if you are bandwidth challenged for OpenOffice.org (which is a big file) then you may benefit from the extra offering. At this stage it appears that OpenOffice.org is the only project to have a body of volunteer distributors.
