OpenOffice.org is a full-featured office suite, with a word processor, spreadsheet, presentation software, and drawing software. It's been available at OpenOffice.org for years, for Windows, Linux, Mac, and other operating systems. However, Mac users have not taken to it, mainly because it doesnot support the native Mac interface--the menus are in individual windows rather than on the Mac menubar, cut and paste doesn't work consistently, and various other issues that break the usability features that make people like Macs in the first place.
No longer. NeoOffice is a port of OpenOffice to use the native Mac Aqua interface. They just made their first official release today. Check it out at NeoOffice/J Home.
OpenOffice now fully cross platform
Customer Feedback
If you are a user of business software and are interested in finding out more about open source options for your business or office, you may be a little bit frustrated about the lack of introductory-level information on this topic...
The best single source of such information that I have found so far is John Locke's "Open Source Solutions for Small Business Problems." It provides an excellent introduction to the concepts, advantages, and disadvantages behind open-source.
