Issue with open office

[Kevin & Leonie <ke...@cbi.net.au>]

To whom it may concern

 

I have used your program for several years. I have just purchased a new
computer and have tried to put the latest version on it. This has turned
into a disaster with numerous programs loading themselves onto my computer.
This used to be a simple program to download. It now looks like a very large
program that will take some 3 hrs to down load. 

 

I will not be using this program again and will advise my many customers
that is a disaster to update. This is a pity because I liked using it
previously.

 

Regards

 

Kevin Davis

This is very weird and complete opposite of my experience, I wonder if we
are
Getting the same product and from the same place.

I downloaded OpenOffice 3.4 in just over 2 minutes.
The installer took another minute to unpack into a temp directory,
Then another minute to install.

That's it, done and installed and working, nothing else to download.

I also checked for updates and it said I was upto date.

No idea where you get 3 hours and numerous programs from. :/

What did you download from where, links please?
