Sorry to hear that. My mom - (75yrs young) - is using OpenOffice to do
the minutes of the local "seasoned citizens" center. Once she figured
out the differences from a typewriter(!), she has been paying with it.
My mother-in-law is 82. Over the Christmas holidays, my wife downloaded
Open Office for her, since all her writing previously had been on Notepad.
Just got an e-mail the other day in which she says how much she
appreciates "office overload." (Just an explanatory note; there used to
be a Temp service company in this area called Office Overload.)

Just wanted to take a minute to tell you how truely horrible OpenOffice
is.
I am running Debian Linux, not by choice, but because my office
requires it.
I attempted to apt-get the new OpenOffice but it wanted me to updated
my kernel which isn't broken.. so no, I will not update it.
I then downloaded OpenOffice from the website and it was a tarred up
file that contained 25+ .rpm files and not a single readme to tell me
how to install it. I have no clue what to do with these rpm files.
This is the epitomy of why Linux will never EVER EVER be used by the
average person. I was completely fooled into thinking your software
would help bridge the gap, it only made it much worse. 25 rpm files,
what a joke.
