[newbie] StarOffice install

[Jeffrey L Sawyer Jr]

I didn't want to show how ignorant of linux or unix I am but I have to. I 
downloaded StarOffice and it is in my home DIR as so51a_lnx_01.tar . I can 
click on it and it opens up to show many other .tar folders. I am 
using  KDE  and can't figure out how to install or setup StarOffice. Please 
don't laugh to hard when replying.
