NeoOffice 2.2.1 Available For Mac

VValdo writes "Following a month or so of their Early Access Program, NeoOffice, the free Office suite for OS X, has just released NeoOffice 2.2.1. New features include support for the native Mac OS X spell-checker and address book; support for high-resolution printing (more than the 300 dpi that previous versions allowed); the ability to open, edit, and save most Microsoft Office 2007 Word, Excel, and PowerPoint documents; and the latest features from OpenOffice.org 2.2.1, which is the code base for NeoOffice. X11 is not required, but for those of you who actually want to use X11, check out the new RetroOffice."

    If Apple wanted to do anything other than vendor lock-in with iWorks, they would have just contributed to OpenOffice instead.

    Why are Mac users such a negative, sour puss, bunch of sad sacks?

    At least, that is the impression one gets from reading Sloshdat. Whenever some people release a new software tool for the Mac, there are ten thousand sad sacks that shoot it down for no good reason.

    Interesting, but does it support odf format ? If not then it`s missing a big chunk of interoperability.
