X11 does not belong on a home or media intense desktop, and never will.

Sounds good that LX can do without it, but surely, the "final" product will not require developer tools to be installed, but should work out of the box on a vanilla OS X installation?

Also, the "native" OpenOffice seems to wrap everything in Java (urrrgh) and is based on the 1.x source and not the slick, new 2.x code.
