I don't know if v2 will run on W98 or not.  However, you can find
v1.1.5, which is the latest of the 1.x versions here:
http://download.openoffice.org/1.1.5/index.html

Version 1.1.5 can read, but not write ODF files.  You'll want JRE
version 1.4.2 to get full use of OpenOffice on W98.  You can find it
here: http://java.sun.com/j2se/1.4.2/download.html
