While 2.0 has not been released as a final candidate, the betas are quite good already. PCMag.com reviews OpenOffice 2.0 and its verdict is “Very Good.” (We already knew that.)

“If you can remember the name of OpenOffice.org, you can remember where to download it for no charge. If you tried the previous 1.1.4 version, the 2.0 beta version currently available will be a pleasant surprise. Unlike the slow, ugly, and underpowered earlier version, 2.0 is swift, smooth, and highly compatible with Office documents…”

“Anyone who doesn’t want to pay Microsoft’s premium prices for rarely used features may prefer this free suite. It does most everything that typical users need it to do, and does some things better than MS Office.”
