There's a binary for OpenOffice 3.0 beta which runs Aqua-native on Intel Macs - it's bigger than NeoOffice but starts up and runs a little faster. I think that's currently the best choice for people who need that kind of thing, e.g. to be compatible to other platforms: http://download.openoffice.org/3.0beta/ I haven't tried it on Leopard, but on Intel it's functionally pretty nice (ignoring the philosophical issues such as bloat and feature creep).
