@K515

Please search the forums before posting information like this. We certainly don't want to discourage you from posting, but Open Office is well known and has been for quite some time.

Regards.

In even more redundant well known news...it will be dark tonight, followed by light, followed by darkness, followed by light (aka...the sun will rise, then set, then rise again)!

Further to your sun rise quote Nick, after making record profits Australia's leading bank CEO was asked if home interest rates could be guaranteed to remain at the current rate for the next six months, the bright spark responded:-

"I hope the sun comes up in the morning but I cannot guarantee that!"

Great answer from some one of $7 million a year! And we got it from you for nothing my man!

Ummm i missed it all ...... Is OO free now ??


Dont forget to use the Reputation System if someone has helped you out !!!
“I have absolutely no pleasure in the stimulants in which I sometimes so madly indulge. It has not been in the pursuit of pleasure that I have periled life and reputation and reason. It has been the desperate attempt to escape from torturing memories, from a sense of insupportable loneliness and a dread of some strange impending doom ….”― Edgar Allan Poe

As far as I can tell is free...but as with most "free" or shareware type programs...I'm sure donations are appreciated.

Here's what I could find regarding the "freeness" of Open-Office:

download: OpenOffice.org -the download will start in a second- Invitation for contributing

Here's a quote from the link:

"While starting the download, we would like to remind you of some opportunities for contribution. OpenOffice.org is provided to you at no charge, and you have every right to redistribute the software. We depend on people willing to contribute their time and support to the project to ensure that OpenOffice.org remains free and available at no cost."
