easy question (probably)

[Cyber Source]

I looked into OpenOffice before didn't go further when I cant seem to find
one download (rpm). I am not well versed in the source code/binary thing.

You want freedom?  So did I :)

I use OpenOffice (www.openoffice.org) and it seems to take the proprietary
features and excess features of Star Office out and into a more simplistic
office suite.  Changing options, such as the default template, can be EASILY
changed.

Just an FYI - This office suite suits me best (Isnt it great to be ABLE TO
CHOOSE :) )

Sure would be nice if the instructions in StarOffice 6 for changing
the default text template actually worked! :-(  You guys got me
going, and all I wanted to do was change the default of the page
margins, but, StarOffice flat refuses to give me the option to set a
new default template.  Gees!  It's almost as bad as Word!  Sure, I
can change it for each document, but as I always change the margins,
you'd think it'd be fairly simple.  The context menu command never
appears.

annoyed in WNY.
