On the home page of www.openoffice.org, click on "I want to download OpenOffice.org" and then (assuming you are using some form of Windows) on the "Download now!" link.

You seem to think that the web site always offers the Windows version by default. Are you sure? For what it's worth, I assumed that it auto-detects the user's operating system (from information provided by the browser) and offers the *appropriate* version. But I haven't tested this.

If this is true, there is a potential snag: a user who downloads the product, say, at work or at a friend's or in a library or internet cafe but for use at home is in danger of obtaining an inappropriate version without any explanation.
