Hi! Sorry if this post goes off topic (not much to do with fink
anymore), but I really
would appreciate some help.

Go to the OpenOffice.org website and download OOo for OS X. You

This is just what I cannot do. I actually have no idea about installing
things on the Mac. I need installation instructions, and thiere are no
instructions at OOo site. So I'm on the site "Downloads"
http://porting.openoffice.org/mac/ooo-osx_downloads.html
and follow the link "Intel and PPC based non-qa'ed Community Builds "
(I have an Intel Mac). Suddenly I have a new "disk" in the Finder,
called MacOSX. It seems to be a connection to the FTP server.
I open it. No Readme, no Installation Instructions. Just a bunch of
folders.
Open the file
Which one? Nobody asks me anything. Am I doing something wrong?
By the way, I can see a folder there called "fink".
and drag OOo into your applications file. It will also have a
droplet (icon)
that you can put on your dock. When you click the droplet, OOo will
open in
your Xwindows environment, assuming you have some version installed.
