Try StarOffice 5.01 from http://www.stardivision.com.  It's a 70 Mbyte
download, but once you've got past that it's free for personal use.

If you don't want to download it, come in to Adelaide one Tuesday
night for a LinuxSA meeting.  I'm sure *someone* has burned it to 
CD-ROM.  The commercial version is less than US$50 anyway, so that's
another option.
