“There’s still no sign of a natively installed Open Office 3,
but that doesn’t mean it’s not there. You just have to dive into

3.5.10, Linux Kernel 2.6.26.8, and Xorg 1.4, however it appears
that the PCLOS team has fixed up some other things and made them
run better.

“Installation is still a breeze, and overall the system runs
faster, and feels better than before. It also seems to play nicer

previous experience with 2009.1 and my current experience with
2009.2.”
