Nope, you're still correct. That's for TECH support, though. You can still get help with
"How do I" problems from forums like this one, since AOO and Neo operate pretty much
identically. There's also NeoWiki, and of course Google.

Apparently we were both wrong -just found NeoOffice new support policy at
<http://www.neooffice.org/neojava/en/contact.php>
So basically, NeoOffice is the same as AOO and uses the same free, user-based
support network.
In the past, when NeoOffice was the only Mac alternative to AOO, there was no option but it.
But now, with AOO already being available for Macs... why use NeoOffice at all?
Don't know, but I have a feeling it might also be on the way out altogether.
They are a bunch of parasites. They charge for their product but don't provide
support.
They use AOO code but do not contribute their code back to the project.
The developer was fired by Sun (then owner of OpenOffice) and then quit working on the Mac
porting project.
I have been using OpenOffice on Macs since I bought my first Mac in 2007.
