Just wanted to report that I have been using the latest version of
Neooffice/J on my new Mac for a month or two now, and I have no
complaints. It really works nicely. I also use OpenOffice on my SuSE
9.2 system at home and my employer's Windows XP system at work. I
haven't noticed any problems with compatibility, etc.
My 12 and 15 year old kids also use these products. After a friend of
my daughter had an unsuccessful experience trying to use Microsoft
Word's Equation Editor, we also convinced her to switch to OpenOffice
on her Windows XP machine.
All the previous is for background. My point in writing is to point
out that NeoOffice seems to work quite well, and urge you guys to work
with them. When I first bought this machine, a Powerbook, I tried
OpenOffice, but had a bit of trouble with it if I recall correctly. I
discovered NeoOffice (from Apple's website, I think) and switched to
it. I am very happy with it. It fits right in with the OS X
environment. I found it much more convenient to use than OpenOffice in
it's current Mac version.
By the way, I am a long time programmer, mostly in C/C++. I have been
using Linux exclusively at home now for a couple of years. This is my
first Mac. I'm learning to program in the Cocoa environment now.
Thanks very much for the work.
Nick.
