Guys'

Is Open Office.org actually free as in a free lunch meaning that I can just d'load it and install it legally and share it with others too ie install on pthers computers - no payments no boot legging???

Too good to be true..

Yes, it's community supported and developed with the help of Sun. It is completely free (in both senses)
