I have looked and found the following links with ISO images of the
FREE cd's. These images of the cd's are similar to what you would
buy from the online sellers of OOo.
Why worry about ISO's? Just download the installer file and load it
onto whatever medium is suitable. I keep a copy of OO on a USB flash
drive and a CD-RW, along with some other software, so that I can easily
install it on other people's computers.

That is the option, but the person seemed to want the same thing
he/she could get if you bought the cd. I gave the info about where
to get the same files (.ISO) and such.
But I also said that they could just download what they needed
and burn the cd from that.
Also another option is to take the install files and transfer it using
a USB storage device. I have two a 1 gig and a 1/2 gig.
Since the install .exe, or whatever, is less than 300 meg, that
is an option you can use.
I keep all the file up to date on a server and burn a cd when
needed. Most people cannot do that. I also keep the other
version of OpenOffice.org that are free and are for Windows.
I use the server mostly as a mass storage device. Terabyte soon.
Well I think we, all of us, have given many options. It is up
the user to decide what to use.
