<[NeoOffice/J] feels like an OS X-native app (because it is!)> NOT! It relies heavily on Java, which slows it down considerably, and it is based on OpenOffice 1.1, whereas we now had OO 2, so powerful and solid that I can't imagine anyone doing all that is now available with Java and some C+++ code. Once you tell X11 to forget system keystrokes, suddenly all you Mac Command keys work where it was Conrol before. Open Office 2 is fast even on really modest machines, like old iMacs and even unsupported OS X machines like Beiges (which is what I use, with Tiger no less).
