VMWare have a free server product that works really well..

OpenOffice, which version?

Ok folks. I'm running Vista on my laptop and fancy trying "OpenOffice".

However, the latest English version of OpenOffice (2.4.1 - as of 16/06/08) is the US English variant.

Now, before I install said beast, will the US version include "British English" dictionaries?
