Does anyone know if this was released as a final version in English? The last non-final release I can find for PPC Macs in English was the rc4. Strangely, the OpenOffice website lists a v 3.0 in Swedish for download but not in any other language. It's also listed in German but that's really v 2.4.1.

I been really curious about the temperature of my computer. Recently, I downloaded istat pro just to see the stats of my computer. I noticed that temperature is kind of high. For example, when I am using firefox and openoffice, the CPU A is 49 to 50c. I don't know if this is normal or not.
Also, when I use vmware fusion for windows xp, the temp for CPU A gets around 69 to 71c. Is this completely normal?
Here are the stats of my unibody macbook pro:
2.4ghz
2.0 GB of RAM
250gb of hard drive
15 inch
better words, it is the stock version.
Istatpro as of now:
HD Macintosh: 37
CPU A: 50
Enclosure Base 35
Enclosure Base2: 35
Enclosure Base3: 33
GPU: 45
GPU Heatsink: 42
Mem Controller: 43
My wife has a Macbook Air, and has no other problems with any other software. However, using OpenOffice 3.0, when using the Word clone, it will intermittently freeze and require killing the whole openoffice app. NeoOffice also had a similar problem, but it happened much less frequently. Should I just move her to MS Office 08?

The last time I tried Openoffice was around the version 1.0 stage. Has it come a long way? I remember dealing with X11 installs and Windows 95 icons/toolbars and if that's how it still is, I'll probably just go the Microsoft route. Has anyone tried Openoffice recently that can let me know how the UI has progressed.
OpenOffice vs. NeoOffice
I've reached the point where I think it's time to finally wean myself from Classic applications (and data file formats) that I currently use on my old PowerMac g4 (still running 10.3.9).
I have both a white intel iMac and a new MacBook Pro which (of course) don't run Classic (at least not without a lot of haggling with Sheepshaver, etc.), and the g4 is 6+ years old and can't last forever.
I'm looking at iWork but it looks like a mess compared to AppleWorks, which I've used for years (I also still use an OLD copy of Microsoft Works running under Classic to maintain some databases that go as far back as 1987!). And iWork doesn't even contain a database module (granted, Filemaker Pro exists for that -- but for my usage, it's overkill).
I've downloaded and am experimenting with both OpenOffice and NeoOffice. They look very similar.
One of my editors had starting using OpenOffice and when he sends files to me they arrive in a zip that, when opened has some games and other things and one png file that is a thumbnail of the document, very tiny.
Is there a converter for OpenOffice docs that will open them in Pages (my preference) or Word ?
Any familiar with OpenOffice? Is it necessary to receive a zip file every time from him? He's technically inept and perhaps I can just tell him how to export the proper file.
I created a two column page in Writer. However I cannot move the cursor to the second column. Mousing over it etc. does not seem to work. Any ideas?

I'll be sending this out to a few companies and I'd like to know what the best file type is to select that will be readable by everyone?

Or can they load the .odt file just fine?

Also, I have red that in order for the Mac Pro to work properly needs to have all the ram sticks of the same quantity (1 Gb for example). Is this mandatory? Could I have 2 sticks of 2 GBs each and 2 of 1 GB each?

Well the time has come to change the Hard Drive in my late 2009 MAcbook. Seems that 250GB got filled up much faster then I expected and I'm left with only 40 GB or so. With that I'd like to swap out to old drive for either a 320 or 500 GB one. but I"m not sure exactly which drive to buy and what exactly will fit. The advice from the members of this forum has been invaluable to me in the past so here I am again. What would you all recommend?
