*NeoOffice* is a welcome open source alternative to the pricier Microsoft
Office and iWork office suites. The application carries with it all the
applications that you'd expect: *word processing*, *spreadsheet*,
*presentations*, *database* and *drawing*. You'll find the interface of
NeoOffice and the range of tools in the office suite very similar to what
you'd find in Microsoft Office. However, NeoOffice does load up much faster
when opening up any document. Most tools open up in a new window so make sure
you don't have too many open, otherwise the interface will look really
cluttered. All the different applications in the NeoOffice suite work well
and are more than worthy replacements to the options available in Microsoft
Office and iWork'08. The presentation tool is the only one I was disappointed
with, as it doesn't offer as many templates or tools as I expected to create
a shiny, professional presentation. You'll find very thorough help docs and
excellent wizards to master all elements of NeoOffice. Although the
presentation tool is a little weak, the rest of the applications in NeoOffice
make for a very good free office suite.Download *NeoOffice PPC Macs 3.2.1* in
