However, I just spent 12 hours totday trying to download the
darned thing and my dial-up BOTH times at about the 6-7 hour mark
dropped signal and the download stopped. And then would not
re-establish the download at where it stopped, so I had to do it all
over again.
Another 60-odd megs and disconnect. Aggggg!
Is there ANY possible way to JUST have a smaller file of only
simple word processing with nothing fancy for dial-up users? So I can
maybe download it and use the program?
I ordered the CD a few months back and it wouldn't work on
my laptop. Tried it a couple of times and was told by a chum when it
wouldn't work in his machine [or a 2nd laptop I got thereafter] that
the CD was bad. [gee thanks]
I don't have ANY choice at this point but ordering ANOTHER
CD that I -hope- works this time because, even with all the [insert
swear swords here] problems I've had with trying to get this program -
MS Word is -worse-!
And yes, I emailed earlier - and am just really despondant
right now.

Look for a copy on disks that accompany the magazine MaximumPC
They often have OpenOffice on the cd; The magazine costs about $10
