you have till midnight may 29 to get your free copy of Sun Microsystems' StarOffice 5.2 and after that it will cost $40 for 5.2; $60 for 6.0; $10 for stripped down 5.2; still free for OpenOffice.org 1.0, available seperately from www.openoffice.org.

well... i'm downloading both the full 5.2 for Linux and Windows

It's StarOffice 5.2 that is free for now(not for long).
StarOffice 6.0 costs 60-75 dollars depending on where you get it.

Openffice is at 1.0 and is free and open source.

Just thought I'd clear up any confusion between OpenOffice and StarOffice.

voidmain:
And to add to that, OpenOffice.org 1.0 is the equivelant of StarOffice 6.0 (minus some minor proprietary items).

Calum:
yeah, i've got staroffice 5.2 but i don't expect i'll ever install it since i also have openoffice.org 1.0 for bot linux and windows (although i haven't used it yet)

Sun are the ones charging, not OpenOffice, nothing wrong with that, but Sun probably "need" our money a little less than perhaps the name of this topic implies!  :D
