Hello David,

Thanks for the info, I thought that there was an
installer.  Also, I did not have X11 installed.  It
may be helpful to have a statement on the download
page that let's people know that there is no longer an
installer for OpenOffice 2.0 and that you can simply
drag it to the "Applications" folder.  I was not used
to that.  Anyway, thanks for all the help!

Sincerely,

Neal Gamradt
