OpenOffice.org Aqua CommentaryVery Happy... - Version: 20070630, 7/12/2007 07:54PM PST

I'm very happy at how this project's come along for OS X—especially having been a Mac user through the 90s and knowing the jilted feeling of learning of the cancellation of software projects for the Mac platform entirely!

I'd been trying a 2.3 build they'd made available and, unfortunately, found it slower than NeoOffice but I look forward to OpenOffice reaching the maturity of having across-the-board feature sets and releases and perhaps not requiring NeoOffice builds

OpenOffice.org Aqua ReviewLooks good but needs bug fixes - Version: 20070524, 6/18/2007 12:08PM PST

I have tried this app today. It was expected as replacement for Neo office which works good and slow.

It looks good fast but have a lot of the bugs yet. I was not able to run Calc application

Looking forward for the fresh review
