I install OpenOffice on my family's computers because it's free. .


3 user license for MS Office home edition for $129 retail is pretty cheap for what you get: Word 2007 Excel 2007, Powerpoint, One Note.  Yes free is always cheaper but $40 bucks per license for 4 quality major apps IMO is well worth paying.

A few months ago I was sent a 60 page document in Word format, which I opened at work with openoffice.  Unknown to me openoffice re-formatted the page numbering and clauses.  When referring to the page numbers, the original author and I got totally confused as we were talking about different things in the document!!  It took a while to work this out though.  After that I think i'll stick to Word, I think.
