Installing AbiWord on n810 Question *N00b Alert*
 
Hi all,

Just got an n810 and am really new to Linux. Could anyone please point me to a step-by-step of how best to install Abiword onto the tablet?

I found this info:

And its probably really great, I just can't seem to figure out what the heck to do with it :p I tried pasting it into a command prompt, but am probably doing it wrong... Thanks in advance.
