x86 is a type of processor, specifically Intel-compatible (also include AMD).
You have one, so don't worry about it.
Yes, you can download it. It comes in a .tar.gz file if I remember correctly.
Then type "tar -xvzf the_tarred_file.tar.gz" and it'll create a new directory
for you. Go into that new directory, and "su" to root. Then type "./setup" and
a really cool GUI screen will come up to walk you through the rest of the
installation. It's really quite impressive, almost as if you are installing a
Windows program. After you get done installing it, you can run it by typing
"/the_direcories_you_installed_it_in/bin/soffice"
