A credible rival to MS Office, OpenOffice.org includes powerful applications for making text documents, spreadsheets, presentations, diagrams, and databases, as well as HTML and XML documents. Not only does it let you edit basic documents, such as letters and faxes, it also handles equations, complex and multipart documents with bibliographies, reference tables, and indexes.

I have just downloaded the beta version of OOo 3.0 (macnative,i.e., without X11) and am quite impressed (sic)! It is somewhat faster than NeoOffice, and passed all my torture-tests.

OpenOffice.org CommentaryAqua interface - Version: 2.4.0, 5/9/2008 06:59AM PST

I don't understand why Aqua is so important to some folks. Besides, I think at one time there was an OO with Aqua.
Aqua is pretty to look at and all, but what does it add to the functionality of the program. It doesn't make calculations faster. It doesn't make the paragraphs appear any differently and it doesn't automatically add items to the database. So what is the big deal?
