They have released RC1 for Openoffice.
OpenOffice.org is the open source project through which Sun Microsystems is releasing the technology for the popular StarOffice productivity suite. It is an international office suite that will run on all major platforms and provide access to all functionality and data through open-component based APIs and an XML-based file format. It establishes the necessary facilities to make this open source technology available to the developer community.

I still use MS Office to ensure compatibility with sending files to others when I know I will be sharing something. But I really, really have been impressed with OpenOffice. I know there are limitations, but for the standard user they are hard to find.

The OpenOffice suite is great for me. I don't do much writing, other than the odd report now and then. And I use spreadsheets to keep order of my bills.
