Star Office is a resource hog. I gave up on running it on my laptop which only has 80MB RAM. Why not tell him to ditch SO and try Word Perfect for word processing and maybe some GNOME stuff (Gnumeric etc. ) for the other stuff. That was my solution. The new Abi suite that comes with Ximian GNOME i pretty nice too. They have made some improvements in the last couple of releases. Nice and lean too.
