The windows box says "All versions >98". That includes all winows
versions from Windows 98. This is the correct download for XP.
"All versions >98" does mean that...if you are computer literate and
know the history of Windows. If you aren't, it might mean "all
versions that are Windows 98", or maybe just look like noise.
Technopeasants might not be able to tell whether Windows NT was
before or after Windows 98 in the scheme of things for instance (it
was released before, but it is still better and runs OOo anyway, so
">98" isn't really correct anyway. The simple "greater than" idea
ignores the fact that there were two lines of descent until XP).
Is there room in the box for separate entries for each Windows
version that all link to exactly the same place? Or maybe list the
ones it *won't* work with, like Win 3.1 and Win95, somewhere?
Anything that might cut down on the repeat questions about how to get
the software or what it will run on...
