You can buy a CD from the vendors listed here: http://distribution.openoffice.org/cdrom/index.html#cdrom Bear in mind, we cannot vouch for any of these vendors. Also, you may be able to find a CD included with some computer magazines. Another option is to download at work, library, friend or other location with broadband internet access and copy the file to a CD or flash drive, to bring it home. I would recommend against using v1.1.1, as it is ancient and does not support the ISO standard ODF file formats. The current version is 3.1.0. -- Use OpenOffice.org <http://www.openoffice.org> --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [email protected] For additional commands, e-mail: [email protected]
