I find installing openoffice extraordinarily complicated. First, the requirement of 2gb of memory seems astronomical for normal users. I normally have 500mb or 1gb for Photoshop machines and things work fine. How does one install the package of OOo? The only way I was able to install the package openoffice.org-2.2.1.tbz was to pkg_add -f - but that left a lot of dependencies (packages) uninstalled. The program seems to work ok but I wonder what I should expect when I am using it a lot. Shoud I install the other (missing) packages (older versions) or the ports (newer)? Is OO intuitive in adapting to newer versions? Thanks for any help. Phil
