What happened to StarOffice?

Sun has stopped supporting the old StarOffice-5.2 and doesn’t allow downloads any longer. Fortunately, Sun released the code to StarOffice and OpenOffice is the result. This has better Microsoft Office compatibility and separates each application into it’s own window and process space. This means no more huge Staroffice desktop to deal with, and the application is smaller and runs faster.
