MODERATORS NOTE:

I checked out the English pages of the Stardivision website 
(http://www.stardivision.com)and found no mention of StarOffice 5.1 
on the site. So I called the US office and asked about it's availability. 
I was told that StarOffice 5.1 is currently available in Germany, but 
not yet available on the United States.

So, I went over to the German web pages (http://www.stardivision.de) and 
sure enough, there were mentions of StarOffice 5.1 there. And it seems 
that you can download the english version from those pages (I can't 
verify if it really is the english version, since it's a 90 MEGABYTE FILE 
and I haven't been able to completely download that sucker yet.)

Anyone who can verify that you can, in fact, download the english personal 
use version please let us know. Also, anyone with information 
on how to upgrade the professional version, let us know that as well.
