Okay, but according to my old Star Office 5.1 instructions (which I at one
time wanted to destroy but never got around to) there are three different
types of installation:
1. Single User Installation
2. Network Installation
3. User Installation
On my system I have a personal account and a business account. If you have
more than one account you do #2 followed by #3. So maybe we should do a FAQ
like Bill says, and lay out the different options.
I don't know what it would have been like had I (read "Rod Roark" here)
installed Open Office from the Mandrake CD's. But since we're talking about
passing out CD's that are not part of a Linux distro, maybe we should write
something up about the three options.
In my case I did #1 first. And then I realized that that was not the type of
installation I wanted. So I removed Open Office and did the other install.
