Actually the spreadsheet is Openoffice's strong point, it works quite
well though I still prefer Tables (another accessible spreadsheet
application) at the moment. It's the wordprocessor that still needs
some major work done, its state right now reminds me of using
Openoffice 1.1 on Linux several years back when accessibility was done
through the java access bridge.

how accessible is open office, then? I'm prepared for the fact it
wont be as good as windows and ms office, but in general, is it good
for dayly use? Less complex spreadsheet manipulation?
thanks,
Arthur.

I think there is a part in the manufacturer's comments where Apple
actually got a few things incorrect. They said open office is fully
accessible, though I haven't tried it, I know some people on this
list said that wasn't completely true.

It's not that bad, honestly. It's pretty fair, though there is a
couple errors in it, though mostly about the documentation. There
was
only one error that I saw regarding Voiceover itself, and honestly I
was nitpicking :). He mixed up Dom and Group modes, and which one
gives a visual overview of the page--he said Dom mode does that,
while
its actually group mode.
