You hardly save anything at all. OOo is an integrated package so most of the code is shared between modules and each module only takes up between 8-15Mb in addition to the core. So by disabling modules you save very little in term of disk storage. Anyway with 15Gb of disk I would not think that you would run out quickly. My lat 87-year old mother-in-law managed her website, research papers and personal stuff in 6Gb with both MSOffice and OOo on board and had room left over. Mind she did use a zip program to archive pictures and such. Maybe this is something you can do. There is probably more you need to know so I will point you to http://documentation.openoffice.org/ where you can get manuals, HOW-TOs and a bunch of other stuff to help you make full use of your copy of OOo. > > Thanks for your help...and if you can't answer I understand that also. > (What's the name of the Sun Systems > CEO...Scott something or other...used to be in my Youth Group in Michigan > many years ago.)
