You seem to be confused.  StarOffice is a proprietary product of Sun
Microsystems -- you'ld need to start at this URL:

http://wwws.sun.com/software/star/staroffice/index.html

and pay to licence and download the package.  Unfortunately it appears
that Sun do not provide a MacOS X version.

Instead, might I suggest the very similar OpenOffice package?  That's
based on the same original code base as StarOffice, but it's available
for free.  MacOS X packages can be downloaded from:

   http://download.openoffice.org/1.1.2/index.html

or the English localised MacOS X version can be had directly from
here:

   http://porting.openoffice.org/mac/ooo-osx_downloads.html

Cheers,

Matthew

Hello,
You are lost. FreeBSD is an operating system. As such, the website has
no links for downloading Mac software. Ask your friend where to get it.

Star Office for Mac OS10

2004-09-25 Thread Charmian Lang
Hi
 A friend of mine recommended I download Star Office for my Mac, to 
take the place of MSW, which I cannot afford.  I don't understand how 
your website works; ergo, how to access information on this software 
and instructions as to downloading it.

Please help!
