Yes, strange: the first time it launched perfectly (all 4 components, via the included AppleScripts) and indeed looked rather stable.

The second time I tried to launch OO - nothing happens!

Edit: Works again! Stupid me: I had changed the name of the "OpenOffice.org638" folder to "OpenOffice.org" - probably that caused the AppleScripts to fail...

I couldn't get it download. The download page is unavailable for some reason. Anyone got any ideas?
