OpenOffice 3.0 available on Mac, with Native Aqua support
October 21st, 2008
OpenOffice 2.x, the open-source challenger to Microsoft Office, was available on Mac but using X11 Unix graphical interface instead Mac OS X native Aqua interface. You had to install X11 separately from your Mac boot CD/DVD, and still it was not cleanly integrated to the system.
OpenOffice 3.0 is now a native Aqua application, that could challenge Microsoft Office 2008, for free!
Even if you are not convinced by open-source software, you should give it a try! Download OpenOffice 3.0 for Mac.
