Love it. Though I hate whenever I transfer documents to another computer that has MS Office, the formats are all different. Only takes a few seconds to fix everything up though.

I give it two enthusiastic thumbs up. My free trial of MS Office will expire soon, and I was debating ether or not to buy it, or go with O.O. Is everything pretty much the same? |

Highly recommend it. No issues whatsoever since I started using it about a year and a half ago.

I use it and love it. Works just as well as MS Office does.

O.O. works just the same as the Microsoft products. I've stuck with it for over a year.

Well, so far it seems it;s all positives, so when my trial expires, I'll give it a whirl. Thanks guys, but feel free to keep telling me I should use it ;D

Is everything pretty much the same? I only use the "Calc" (Spreadsheet), "Impress" (Powerpoint), and "Writer" (Word), but I never noticed any major differences from what Microsoft offers. Virtually the same. I see no reason whatsoever to go with Microsoft's product when O.O is free. |

Depends what you are using it for. It's all you are doing is writting papers, it's good. Problem is, no Grammer and Style check.

It's what I have used for several years now, and I write for a living.

By far one of the best programs I use on my laptop. The only problem I have with it, is the bullet and numbering system it uses (as I take down notes for my classes in college). Aside from that though, I highly recommend this program.

The positives of it more than outweigh the negatives for me. Open office is a fantastic tool.

It's a Love/Hate thing for me.
The reason it gets any hate from me, is that I have to do a lot of tinkering because I get all kinds of file formats all the time.
But I also love it for that reason... because I can handle all those formats all the time.
