If anyone is looking for a no cost word processor program for Macintosh,
Windows, or Linux. Corel is giving away WordPerfect 3.5e for the Macintosh.
It's a 23MB download. And Sun is giving away StarOffice for Windows and
Linux. And it's a 72MB download (though you can order the CD for 10 bucks).
Window & Linux users StarOffice is available at:
http://www.sun.com/dot-com/staroffice.html
Mac users WordPerfect is available:
http://www.corel.com/products/macintosh/wpmac35/pack_freedownload.htm
This is the full package. It makes it sound like an upgrade but it is the
whole shebang. You can take those $$$ you were going to spend on that other
companies Office(TM) products and go and buy some cloth or armor.

PS - Thankfully I have a 56K modem now. It only took me around 1 hour 45
minutes to download WordPerfect. So it will probably take around 5-6 hours
to download StarOffice at 56K. Start the download when you go to bed and
check it in the morning.
