Gem are a distributor (for Linux versions as well, Red Hat use them in some countries) and not the reseller you might buy from. save the complexity, use OpenOffice1.0, potential business model for people who want to support it :-) Malcolm On Sat, 2002-05-18 at 09:04, Christopher Dawkins wrote:
Sun seem to be making a mess of it again. Just looked on their site, thinking of getting a boxed set to start with, and they promote Gem Distribution Ltd (www.gem.co.uk) as the provider.
The Gem site advertises XP and Xboxes. It makes no mention of either Sun or StarOffice!
The Sun site says at one point "Free to education" and at another "We do offer educational site licences". These are not necessarily contradictory, of course: it seems from elsewhere that educational site licences are free.
Does anyone have any further information concerning UK suppliers of
a) the CDs b) licences, if they are necessary b) documentation, other than what's on the site - e.g. books
I have to decide on openoffice.org vs Staroffice, and get it going before my current SO6 dies, which I think is going to be June 3rd.
