Outdated When I Ordered - Reviewed on 2008-11-21

Open Office is available with free download, but since I have dial up connection it kept timing out before download completed, so I decided to order the CDs.
Was delivered in a timely manner and in good condition and cost effective. The only problem was that once installed, I was notified there was an update available. And the update was not a small incremental update - but required a full download - again a time out factor.
Finally found a work around for downloading - so am now using Open Office and it is working well for me.
Maybe I did not do enough searching to find the latest version - maybe there is a newer version out there now.
Some of the problem may have been me selecting the wrong product.

The disk was defective. When I tried to load and run, the computer was locked up and I had to pull the power cord to begin restoration. I did not complain, but simply cut it in half and threw it away.
Does what it is suppose to do, however......... - Reviewed on 2008-10-28

The product appears to be as good as the Microsoft version and even has some extra features. However, it integrates itself into the system and has rendered a few features inoperable, such as the "e-mail this link/page to" feature in "Internet Tools" when viewing web sites.

It took so long (over two weeks) to get here, I finally just downloaded it for free from the Internet. Also, I ordered two copies, and even though both CD's arrived in the same mailer by USPS, I was charged $3.99 shipping for each one. So let's see, $0.01 for the CD + $3.99 for shipping = $4.00 each X 2 CD's = $8.00 for free software. I think I got a deal, I'm just not sure where.

I downloaded Openoffice a week ago, since then have taken off my computer a trial edition of Wordperfect X4 and Microsoft Office 2007. I cant say enough about how good this program is. It opens documents generated from office 2007 with no errors. Its great. I highly recommend it.
