Thanks for the update. While I have Office 2003 and 2007 on two computers (because I was able to get them at no cost to me), I love openoffice.org's features and bundle it on every secondhand machine I sell (as well as using it on my Linux boxes). It has served me well, and has much to do with why I am so incredibly happy with Linux.

I too have been using Openoffice for a few years, although a large download I much prefer it over MS works & Office 2003 both of which I have. Thanks for the update Hankers.

Has it gotten any faster to load? I hated having to wait what seemed like forever.
