JAN_RYBAR  With Version 3.0, OpenOffice.org is now able to run on Mac OS X without the need for X11. Thus, OpenOffice.org behaves like any other Aqua application. The cool thing is, while the market leading office suite vendor dropped VBA support and the Solver feature, OpenOffice.org recently introduced limited VBA support and includes a powerful Solver component. In addition, OpenOffice.org integrates well with the Mac OS X accessibility APIs, and thus offers better accessibility support than many other Mac OS X applications. Finally, people like OpenOffice.org 3.0 for Mac OS X because of its very good stability and performance. Reportedly, some Mac users have switched to OpenOffice.org just because of its extremely good stability.

GAZMAN  1) This is a beta of version 3 so X11 is not required as version 3 will be a native application.

2) The download now link is for the Intel build of the application. A PPC version can be downloaded from http://ooopackages.good-day.net/pub/OpenOffice.org/MacOSX/3.0.0beta2/  (Version 3.0b2)

REDDOG99  I tried looking at the FTP & HTTP downloads and there is NO version 2.4.1 available for OS X What's going on?  (Version 2.4.1)

R_L_D  the native OOo 3.0 dev build of OpenOffice Aqua works very well here and is totally native; no X11. Much faster than Neo or X11.  (Version 2.4.1)
