Sure.
I was reading a review about Mandrake 9.0 (http://www.ratedpc.com/review.asp?id=63) and they were talking about OpenOffice interaction:
"I really like the intergration of OpenOffice.org in Mandrake 9.0. Unlike previous versions of Mandrake, when I added the Windows fonts through drakefont, they also became available to OpenOffice."
That can be found here: http://www.ratedpc.com/review.asp?id=63&page=3. I hope this helps. I can't download anything large like ISO images from where I am, so I'm looking at either Mandrake 9.0 Powerpack or Redhat 8.0 Personal. At the moment, StarOffice integration is the only thing stopping me from going Redhat. Cheers and thanks in advance.

hmmm I wonder if you could further elucidate on this "interaction"? as I
understand it OO is the same basic engine and such as StarOffice, however the
Star Office version offers a few more whistles and smoke for the mirrors.
