OpenOffice live

Aloone_Jonez:
Just as an experiment I copied the OO install directory to a USB stick and ran it on one of the college computers and it worked so I've burned it to CD, now I might add an autorun.inf file to make it pop up when the CD's inserted.

What do you lot think?

I've heard of live Linux but I didn't know live OpenOffice is possible, do you think I should be working on my own distro?

I might beable to put the Linux and Mac versions on the same CD!

Refalm:
What about copying OOo (the actual directory, not the setup), burning it on CD and running it from there?

Aloone_Jonez:
That's exactly what I did.

Refalm:
Ah, by install directory, I thought you meant that directory from which you're supposed to install OOo.

But this is pretty awesome stuff. I hate it when I have to use Office on a strange computer.

Aloone_Jonez:
I assume you mean MS Office, well now you don't have to use it anymore!

I've also copied OOo onto my user area at college (it won't install under a restricted account) - no more MS Office for me!
