Wow, CIO, "computing" news for the pointy-haired 
masses....<http://search.dilbert.com/comic/Database%20Color>

Koffice became Calligra three years ago: <http://www.calligra.org/>, and 
doesn't actually have an OS X version.

And Apache Open Office, LibreOffice and NeoOffice are three forks of the same 
codebase.

LibreOffice is by far the most mature and reliable, IMO, since it looks like 
the best OO devs went to that project.

More importantly, from the viewpoint of this list, neither OpenOffice or 
NeoOffice offer PowerPC builds for the latest version.

LibreOffice does. <http://www.libreoffice.org/download/?nodetect>

Kinda makes the decision for yah...
