[GLLUG] OpenOffice.org 2.02

[Charles Tower]

I have spent a couple of hours trying to find someplace on-line to order 
  a CD-ROM with the latest Linux version of OpenOffice.org on it, so I 
can install it on my PCs.  I don't have access to a broadband 
connection.  I don't have a laptop I can take to Gone Wired to download 
stuff there.  I have checked out dozens of U.S. sites listed in the 
GetOpenOffice.org list of vendors, and I have found one place that wants 
seven dollars for it, postpaid.  All the others I checked, if they 
weren't dead links or places that no longer sell the CD or places that 
look as though they never sold the CD, had older versions of the 
software available.  Sometimes all they listed was version 1.1.  Even 
all the web sites I have bookmarked for buying software on CD, places 
that are up-to-date for distros, have only older versions of the CD 
available, or so their web pages say.

The purpose of this rant isn't to get help from some kind soul who would 
download it for me and burn it to CD.  I have access to an older version 
via Ubuntu that suits my needs, and my need isn't critical.  I just 
don't care to buy any but the latest version.  I simply suggest that one 
of the images we put on the burning station for Penguicon is the latest 
OpenOffice.org suite, since it seems to be difficult to find on CD. 
Thank you.
