The latest version of Firefox is 3.6.2 and all Ubuntu has is 3.5; same
thing with Open Office -- the latest version is 3.2 but Ubuntu only
has 3.1. Where can I find information on how to install (compile?)
the latest programs into the Linux OS? (seeing as the Ubuntu variants
don't have the ability to get updates) And please don't tell me to
download 10.04; I have absolutely NO *INTENTION* of downloading that
version until May or June */at the earliest!/*
