If you have SuSe Linux this would be a good addition to it. It offfers you the latest updates available from SuSe and the companies that they work with and the latest version of Star Office. It is true that you ca also download the exact same updates but it will take you quite some time to do so and if time is an issue then you should really consider this product. Star office 6.0 is the latest and improved version of the product. It uses the same principles that Office XP does but is not quite at the same level. However, there is also a big gap in the price range too and it is deffinitelly in favor of Sun (Star Office 6.0). Having in mind that Star Office is no longer freely distributed this makes the product from SuSe even a better bargain. I was able to do anything that I could think of with Star Office 6.0 and there were some very neat additions/improvements over the previous version.
 Highly problematic--perhaps the Win/Solaris/linux dist works September 10, 2002

I do not know what others experienced, but running this patch CD ruined my linux experience. (1) SuSE linux 8.0 still does not recognize my PCMCIA cards, (2) when running StarOffice 6.0 I got error messages: "/opt/staroffice6.0/work does not exist" and fatal errors when trying to load MS Office files from my windows/c partition--SO 5.2 did it flawlessly, by the way--and when trying to create new files the templates could not be found anywhere.In other words--this particular distribution of StarOffice 6.0 did not appear to load/install properly and does not appear to function even adequately. Some of you linux wizards might say, "Well, just tweak, tweak, tweak." Fine. If you have the time. And why should one have to, anyway? It should install and work properly. Period. I am still willing to give the "standard" SO 6.0 distribution a try. But I wish I had saved the money this time around.
 Pretty good deal January 30, 2003

You can't argue with the price, which is much less than the StarOffice package from Sun. Go with this or openoffice.org for your Bill-Gates-Free office desktop suite.The online help is overall pretty bad, but of course that's par for the course. I downloaded the Sun manuals but they were prety much the same or technical only so I got the StarOffice Companion and really like it. It saved me a lot of time and I found some good graphical stuff I can use. There are some patches you might need, so check Sun's patch site. Get it!
WOW!!!!!!!!! September 7, 2002

Another solid product from SuSE!! If you own the SuSE 8.0 Distro then this is a no brainer. You get a powerful Office Suite for so little money and its simply the best!!

Would not install with SuSE Linux 8.2. The auto installation error message said to check that you have the correct CD. It may have been looking for a patch from the Sun internet site but I am not online with my SeSE Linux 8.2 yet and therefore could not get a patch. I talked to SuSe support and they could not comment on the product. I talked with Sun and was advised to get Star Office 7.0. The cd case said it was for SuSe Linux 8.0 but nowhere does the Amazon offer say that.
