--- Comment #68 from Hugh Beevor <[email protected]> ---
Tried installing LibreOffice both Still and Fresh versions and on my iMac with
OS X 10.10.5 Yosemite the software went through the verifying process and then
refused to open. My iMac was also seriously slowed down. So no use. Shall try
NeoOfice and see if that works. HUGH
