Yes, this is true for the most part. There is a difference in the
formats of version 2.0 of OpenOffice.org (OOo) from the 1.1.x versions.
OOo 2.0 will be able to read the file formats of 1.1.x but 1.1.x does
not read the file formats of 2.0.
Many people using Mac version OS X (10.2 or above) prefer
NeoOffice/J. It is a Java port of OOo. At present, it reads and writes
all of the OOo formats for the 1.1.x versions. It is available at
www.neooffice.org.
