Probably the biggest gripe for me is on the spreadsheet side of things. If I took an MS Excel created file, and then used OpenOffice, a lot of the data didn't transfer too well.
This is me. Open worked great when MS was $500 but if you watch sales you can get Home and Student for $79. Most of my work things come Adobe or Excel and Open kind of mess's with the Excel data. I switched to H&O for the small price.
