I looked into this for work a while ago. I don't think there's much difference between them. NeoOffice is a port of OpenOffice with an interface designed to look nicer on OS X. As it's a port, Neo's development will run slightly behind. As they're free, you could always try each and see which is best for you.
>From the NeoOffice wikipedia page... *"NeoOffice 3 vs OpenOffice.org 3.0 OpenOffice.org 2.x.x for Mac OS X did not use the Aqua window system. It has been supported starting with OpenOffice.org 3.0. OpenOffice.org 3.0 was released October 13, 2008, but only for Intel-based Macs. There are also unofficial builds for PowerPC-based Macs. When NeoOffice 3.0 was released on March 31, 2009, it used the same underlying code as the then-current OpenOffice 3.0.1 release. Compared to OpenOffice.org 3.0, NeoOffice 3.0 opens documents faster and is slower at printing and print preview." * Hope this helps,* *Darren* * On Mon, Sep 14, 2009 at 1:24 PM, Malcolm Harris <[email protected]>wrote: > Dear All, > > I'm thinking of trying out an Open Office suite.
