How to install openoffice?

Hi all,

Using f14.x64

I'm trying to install a basic openoffice package with calc and whatever 
reads .pps files.

yum install openoffice.org* gives me this:

Install     332 Package(s)

Total download size: 874 M
Installed size: 2.3 G
Is this ok [y/N]: N

Is this for real?  I don't have much use for hundreds? of language packs 
(my Gurkali is a bit rusty).

Does anybody know the magic yum incantation to install something 
reasonable?  332 packages just doesn't feel reasonable to me.

TIA,
Mike Wright
