Surely OO must have more templates than this? Are there any to download
from somewhere?
    There are several located on the documentation page of the OOo web
site: http://documentation.openoffice.org. You can also do a search on the
web for openoffice.org templates. It will provides several web sites with
them. There are probably many reasons for not putting a large number of
templates in the OOo download package. One of them is limited space.

You are joking! I guess some 1000 templates would use up about 10 or 20MB of disk space engendering problems on 10 years old PCs.

I am only guessing, but I think the space consideration is more for the size of the download (meaning the amount of time it would take to download the installation file and the space on the hosting servers) than for the size of the installed suite on the user's computer. That way, people who do not have unlimited Internet accounts do not have to pay for extra time or megabytes to download something that they may not need; if they *do* need it, they can download the templates separately.
