In theory I’d like to write like this also – taking time and genuine effort to make a good post… but what can I say… I procrastinate alot and never seem to get something carried out. <a href="http://www.dvd-to-ipads.com/" / rel="nofollow">dvd to ipad converter</a> This was a actually fantastic post.

Not far off but not quite there. The UI needs to be improved the office 97 style should be long gone. I don't mean copying the office ribbon I mean going one step better. People are quite fickle if OO get the same or greater feature set that Office and if the UI is prettier then people will move in their masses. Its a shame as I believe this is the only block preventing Linux becoming the OS of choice. I have to agree with previous comments OO is just not as good a Office 2007.

Just a question and I've had no problems, its the best free office suite available in my opinion. Of course its not as good for writing essays and stuff, but its just as good, if not better for certain other things, say science pracs for example. Just what I think...

The OO user interface is a flawless example of design by committee. I believe the underlying engine is just fine - I've experienced few crashes with OO, but it's deeply flawed for production formatting work. I spent countless hours merely finding out HOW to do simple formatting (add headers, format them for facing pages, create page styles, blah blah). If I were a company or an end user billing for time, I would never, ever use or recommend OO. Just check the keyboard customization page - it looks like it was thrown together by enterprise IT techies who had far more pressing things to do. OO - yuck. My next book will be formatted with LaTeX! I used OpenOffice 2 to format a 300-page book, and I can tell you, it was hell. The OO user interface is a flawless example of design by committee.

IMO, "import files from Microsoft Office 2007" is the most relevant feature. However there are some things i think should be corrected about importing .doc files (not talking about .docx as it is not yet ready). Being able to work with .doc files the same way as Micro$oft does I think is the best way to bring those users to the OpenOffice world. For this reason i think it is important the look of open office too (I don't care about it but most users do). Really interesting.
