No, Ethel, you've written to the OpenOffice users' list. People often refer 
individuals to OpenOffice because this open source software is a suite of 
office productivity software that can open most MS Office files, as well as 
save them in most MS formats. 
   
  Open source means that it is freely available. On the Open Office website you 
will not see a link to download MS Office, since that website does not offer MS 
Office. The OpenOffice users list is manned by volunteers who use OpenOffice on 
PCs and Mac machines. While OpenOffice is free to download, many individuals 
prefer to order a CD that is offered by several third parties. They are allowed 
to charge for the free download and to add their own bells and whistles. If a 
person is on dial-up, he may wish to purchase a CD, since the software can take 
in excess of 8 hours to download. Many ISPs will disconnect during a download 
if the download exceeds 8 hours.
   
  When you return to the Open Office website, you may wish to read the FAQ 
before downloading the software. 
   
  Once you've downloaded the software, please feel free to return to the users 
list for any assistance you may need. The only requirements for joining the 
list that we request are that you use meaningful subjects for your e-mails and 
that you write respectfully.
