Gunner,
My old computer, with Microsoft Word installed, was easy to copy and paste a document in order to save information I wanted off a webpage. With Open Office, I had all kinds of trouble with the program changing size and font, or positioning pics or paragraphs. He got so tired of hearing me try to work with the program, and curse at the computer for not doing what I wanted, he finally installed this thing called Fireshot. It basically takes a JPG of the page, and you can crop out the unimportant parts. I can't highlight as I would when I copy and paste, but it's way better than the frustration I had with Open Office. Of course, Open Office is fine for creating a document from scratch, all my problems were with copy and paste functions.
