Actually, you can sell it and when sold on CD is a convenience for those who can't download it. On the other hand there are those who charge a lot and then point the customers here for their "paid support". Of course, there's absolutely no reason to pay for a download that you can get for free from www.openoffice.org, but those selling it are banking on people not knowing that. --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: users-unsubscr...@openoffice.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: users-h...@openoffice.apache.org
