Just to freshen things up here, I shall post something different from Vista.

Open Office Aqua for Mac OS X is now available as an alpha download.

Although you may install it, there are many holes that are to be fixed by developers:

  • You cannot print
  • PDF export does not properly work as the text won’t show on the page right
  • Starting OpenOffice.org from a shared folder does not work
  • Copy and paste does not fully work
  • Some text is not drawn in places like Impress
  • Impress will not recognize multiple monitors

Most importantly, the alpha may crash and your data will be lost.

If you would still like to try it, visit the Open Office Aqua Site.
