NeoOffice is OpenOffice for Aqua, so no X11 needed (though I use X11 for the Gimp and Inkscape and find it a PITA since you can't hide one or the other, just "all of X11" and extra clicks to use the programs..once to activate window, once to use tool). I think I see what you were talking about DTP's and layout and how OOo handles it better than Word in that having a caption on an image in Writer means it makes a frame for the image and has the text in there. Having an image with the caption under it and being able to move them together all around the doc? Not possible in Word from what I can tell.
