[QUOTE="Randy B. Singer, post: 1188684, member: 190607"] It's important to note that that comparison is between two versions for Windows, not the Macintosh. The Mac versions aren't exactly the same. For instance, the translators harped upon in the article are not the same ones used for the Macintosh. I wouldn't be surprised if the Mac version of LibreOffice has gotten a lot less attention than the Windows version. In any case, from reading the project blogs, LibreOffice has been rushed out the door and is in its infancy. Also, it should be noted that even though OpenOffice/Mac is the best known of the OpenOffice-based ports for the Macintosh, it is the least advanced. It would be more interesting to compare LibreOffice to NeoOffice. GoOO also touts features that none of the other OpenOffice-based Mac ports have yet. ___________________________________________ Randy B.
