Its creator, German software publisher SoftMaker, is nearing completion of the latest release, SoftMaker Office 2010 for Linux. This new release offers document tabs, high-quality filters for the Microsoft Office 2007 file formats DOCX and XLSX, and presentation-quality charts in the spreadsheet. It also brings integration into KDE and Gnome, using the system's colors and fonts. A release candidate is available as a free download."

MacOS X has a larger marketshare than Linux. Furthermore, because OSX is Unix based, porting almost any application from Linux can be done in a few days (although the GUI might not have a native feel).
