look for staroffice on typhaon's FTP server.
(typhaon.ucs.uwa.edu.au)

PLEASE don't use this site if you are not at UWA - the only reason i gave
him this address is because his email address is at cygnus, in the same

for the rest of you, this site is in AUSTRALIA. it will be very slow.
staroffice sites abound, you should follow the links from the homesite
relevant to your distribution.
