I don't know if they could represent the weird several-spreadsheets-in-a-page views that Numbers has, but from a data portability point of view, I'd much rather know that what I'm saving all of my stuff in is an ISO approved international standard controlled by a vendor-neutral body. Personally though, I'd rather encourage Apple to support ODF in iWork as a first class citizen, possibly the default format. I can't say, but I'd also hope that they'd change the UI up some to better fit with what iWork and MS Office are doing with the user interface. It won't look like Ugly MS Office 2000 sitting on your pretty Mac Desktop. It's still rough around the edges and not production ready, but it'll give you a better idea as to what to expect with the 3.0 release.Īnd, by the way, they've also discussed theming so that it better fits in with the Mac world. If you're brave, you can see the Aqua OpenOffice with the 2.4 series developer snapshots ( ). Native Mac support is slated for release with OpenOffice 3.0 in September, with the first beta being available in April. They've made fantastic progress at the Aqua port. is coming to the Mac, and natively, without requiring any X11 server. ppt had some problems on my teacher's computer. ppt presentation was the only one that didn't have compatibility issues during my seminar class last semester, while the other "true". Powerpoint, but I don't use animations much anyway, since I find many of them tacky in a serious presentation.
The only difference that I've noticed so far is that animations are somewhat laggy in Impress vs. The others were just complaining that it isn't as fully-featured as MS Office, which is true to an extent, but I've had a need for any of the features that it lacks from MS Office. Since it's reliant on, NeoOffice's releases will tend to lag a few months behind 's, but it's worth it to had that native aqua feel. They're about 90% the same code, I believe, and the only real differences is that NeoOffice was made to be native OS X while still has to run in X11. Of course, NeoOffice will always have all the same features that has, since NeoOffice is based on 's source code.
