    OpenOffice, which version?

    Ok folks. I'm running Vista on my laptop and fancy trying "OpenOffice".

    However, the latest English version of OpenOffice (2.4.1 - as of 16/06/08) is the US English variant.

    Now, before I install said beast, will the US version include "British English" dictionaries?

    Download your appropriate dictionaries (Cymru, real English, whatever) and install it after installing OpenOffice.org
    My all-time favourite Dilbert cartoon, this is: BTW, a Dumpster is a brand of skip, I think.

      Cheers RC.

      What about if I want to install OpenSolaris in a virtual environment under Vista. Which product (Preferably free as I am a Lancastrian...)
