For those of you Mac fans out there, I used to use OpenOffice (which required you to do some pretty hectic installation of X11 developer tools (which are in a hidden directory on install disks)). When I updated X11 last week according for an Apple patch, everything broke and I could not use OpenOffice anymore. Thanks, Apple!
Here's the good news! Now you can just use NeoOffice which has ported OpenOffice for the Mac! No more maintaining the links between X11 and OpenOffice.

This looks like a nice mind-mapping tool as a potential free replacment for the very expensive "Mind Manager." It looks like it should run on Mac and Windows since it's just java...
Quoted: FreeMind - Mind-mapping software.

Codeweavers is looking for people with Intel based Macintoshes to test their new "Crossover" software. Crossover will allow you to run Windows apps on your Mac without installing Windows at all (as Parallels and Boot Camp both require).

Not that I mind the stripped down GUI that OpenOffice is using now but it appears that it will get an Aqua facelift at the Apple Paris Expo next month.
Quoted: Hot on the heels of the recent NeoOffice release, the OpenOffice team has announced that it will be unveiling a native Aqua version of OpenOffice at the Apple Expo in Paris next month. "Until now the software has required that users install the X11 Window System, a graphical interface that lets Unix-based applications work on Macs. The new version of the software won't require X11, and will work just like any other OS X-native application." A pretty screenshot is also available.
