As Frank has said there has never been such law suits. Show us where there has been one. Until then you need to stop with all this legal BS about potential law suits because they aren't going to happen. There aren't any contracts that say you can't install free software simply because its free so quit saying there are. The OpenOffice.org software is covered under the LGPL so any one CAN install and use the software on any computer for any reason whatsoever. -- http://24.197.142.167/ See the Openoffice.org FAQ Microsoft users go to http://www.pclinuxos.com for a great user friendly Linux experience! --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
