I need to upgrade to OS X 10.4. Will that cause any problems with
the operation of OO.2.04? I read of many folks having problems
using OO.2 when downloading into OS X 4.
Should I have concern? I finally have started to master/coexist
with with Open office and I'm afraid to change the balance but I'd
like to download CADintosh 5.2.2 and it utilizes OS X 4. Is it
worth the risk?
I need to learn CAD.
The problem that people have been having with Mac OS X 10.4, is that
they have been trying to install the version of X11 for Mac OS X
10.3, instead of using their install disks and doing an Optional
Install of X11. As long as you use your install disk, to install X11,
there is no problem.
Also, OpenOffice.org 2.1 is now available that incorporates some
important changes. One example on the Mac, is the opening of certain
filenames.
There is no risk involved in doing the update, if you follow the
instructions on the Mac Porting web site. (I'm using Mac OS X 10.4.8
just now with no issues.)
For download:

X11 installation:

thanks for past help and I hope future help.

P.S. Mac OS X 10.5 is just around the corner if you are willing to wait.
