Hello Cris, See the Mac porting pages of OpenOffice.org on how to install on a Mac: http://porting.openoffice.org/mac/ Unless you have Leopard (OS X 10.5.x) on your Mini, you'll have to install the windowing program (nothing to do with Windows :-)) Read the How-To about X11. Download comes from here somewhere: http://porting.openoffice.org/mac/download/x11.html HTH -- Guy using dutch OOo 2.3 m221 on a iMac Intel DualCore Tiger and brazilian OOo SRC 680 m241 on an Intel MacBook Pro Leopard -- please reply only to users@openoffice.org -- Dodoes can't afford to have headaches
