NeoOffice and OpenOffice

NeoOffice 2.1 comes out (based on the OpenOffice 2.1 codebase) on 27 March; about three days later OpenOffice 2.2 comes out.

NeoOffice is a fantastic boon to Mac OS X users, but the lag can be a bit painful at times.

latenightcocoa.com

I just sent in a small once-off donation to Scotty of latenightcocoa.com. I've quite enjoyed some of his podcasts (the ones I've been able to listen to so far) and I hope he can keep them up, especially if he can keep attracting guests like Aaron Hillegass.
