Just out of curiosity, what's the advantage of using a Fink install of

As far as
I can see from their web site, they have the latest and greatest
versions
built for OS X, and I would think that they'd have installers for new
versions before they'd be available through Fink. As I say, I'm just
curious -- I already have the 'official' version installed (virtually
painless) and working just fine on Panther with Apple's X11.
There is no official installer for openoffice 2 beta. The official
installers probably won't be available until after the beta process
finishes, whenever that is. Some developers have made their own
personal beta builds available. I would probably go with whichever
one was the newest. At the moment, the fink version is newer than
any other one I can find for OS X.
