OpenOffice 3.0 Wizard
To make things a little easier on everyone while we upgrade from OpenOffice 2.3 to OpenOffice 3.0, I've compiled the following screenshots. This is the wizard you'll be greeted with the first time you run OpenOffice 3.0.
Screen 1: Click "Next"
Screen 2: Leave "Transfer personal data" checked and hit "Next"
Screen 3: Fill in the blanks or just leave everything blank, it doesn't matter. Type A people will fill it out and Type B people will just click "Next"
Screen 4: Uncheck "Check for updates automatically" and click "Next"
Screen 5: Once again this screen is a personality test. Type B people will check "I do not want to register" and click "Finish". Type A people will undoubtedly want to register but I leave that entirely up to you. Don't ask me how to do that cause I'm going to tell you; "you should have checked I do not want to register" in my best Nick Burns voice.
If you've never run OpenOffice before then the wizard will only be four screens long. There won't be a "2. Personal Data" cause you won't have any personal data to transfer.
EDIT: Upgrade didn't work out quite as planned. Updated to OpenOffice 2.4 in the meantime. The 2.4 Wizard is almost identical to the above Wizard, so I'm not going to post a bunch of new screenshots.

Hey Chewie,
I didn't get prompted with a setup wizard for Open Office 2.4, and I'm still running Open Office 2.3. Do I need to do anything to upgrade?
