NeoOffice is Mac OS X only, and is basically OpenOffice.org with a native Mac interface instead of X11. I have used both on my PPC Mac Mini desktop system, but prefer NeoOffice as there have occassionally been problems with the X11 version on OS X doing wierd things like losing the menu bar at the top under the window decorations.
I am not a heavy OO user, primarily using spread sheets and MySQL data sources to import data. The vast majority of my writing is still done with vim writing DocBook XML (OO is supposed to support DocBook XML, but I have never found it usable).
