Open Office for Mac? It turns out …


200601192056


It turns out that there is a stable build of OpenOffice 2.0 for Mac OS.  I haven't tried it out yet (the download will take another hour or so).  Hopefully this version looks and works the same as the Windows version.  There seem to be two versions, the PPC version and the Intel version.


Update:



I downloaded the package and installed it and nothing happened aside from a script that popped up on my screen for a few seconds.  Has anyone else tried this and succeeded?

Works for me with all latest Mac OS X updates. It's still a crappy X11 version though; you're better off with NeoOffice until they release a native cocoa version.

Thanks Vaughn. I will take a look at NeoOffice. I use MS Office 2004 at the moment (I sold out!).
