Bit of everything, part 20

Greetings MacRadar readers willing to listen to the next portion of rambling thoughts packed in the format of one post.
Just recently I have been updated to version OpenOffice 3. Of significant changes - the native Mac port, for which no longer has to be subverted with X11. That's a plus. Another of the positive moments worth noting gratuity and interface and work style, close to users of old versions of Office for Windows. The rest can safely write to the cons. And this crooked interface "greetings from Windows 95" with pathetic attempts to bring him to the kind of "Acqua" and unacceptable speed (display already typed text in a second norm here). Meet the new version of Office for the poor... So far, this miracle of Hindu programming saves from the flight in only one basket, namely the potential of what ever is necessary to edit documents ODF format, so beloved Linux users.
Mahjong fans may have caught the Ivory, a good free version of mahjong with three-dimensional graphics and a basic set of features. On the other hand, a Java engine gladly demonstrate all the costs of cross-platform, so it's up to him far from commercial products.
Almost accidentally I came across an interesting scientific calculator, PCalc. The trick is not only workable, but also nice. Users who regularly need a simple and convenient tool to calculate it for sure like it, although the status of shareware can scare someone.
Well, the little updates in the intervening period: 1PAssword got alternative records storage format, by which conveniently sync cords through Dropbox or similar services. In addition, a new set of keys can be stored anywhere, and the migration process between the old and new formats is completely transparent to the user. The Things Add a couple of little things like being able to filter events by the presence of a time reference. Less noticeable updates Speed Download, VLC, CCC and update with surprising frequency Together.
