However open office provides what exactly windows office provides, the speed of these applications are comparitively not equal. Micosoft wins…
@Dhanasekaran: If your PC is old enough that you can tell the difference between OpenOffice and MS Office (Micosoft?), then it is definitely time to upgrade your computer. I’ve used both office suites (in their then-current versions) on everything from Pentium II computers, to dual-core AMD64s, and the difference in speed is negligible if your computer is fast enough to run them. Price, security (MS Genuine Advantage phoning home, security updates needed every month)…Microsoft is a big loser!
try to open large files with file extention ‘docx’. I still wait for 1minute to laod in OpenOffice. I can see you when its simple and small files with doc file extension. So get great deal wth that…
ms office 2007 beats open office. It has way more features and is well polished. Open office looks like ms office 95, it getting better every release, i like it, its just not there yet.
Finally, opentype fonts support!

Pasito a pasito se parece más a… bueno ya saben. Como muchos estoy esperando que salga la versión final.
Por cierto, Lotus Symphony está basado en OpenOffice. Así que no sé hasta que punto es realmente una “alternativa”.

Bueno, está basado en OpenOffice.org, pero aparenta bastante diferente, al menos en la interfaz. http://symphony.lotus.com/software/lotus/symphony/home.nsf/product_ss_wpe

Pues, se da el mismo fenomeno de Las distribuciones basadas en debian como ubuntu, y las distribuciones basadas en ubuntu etc etc
Supongo que es saludable no crees?

OpenOffice.org le ha salvado la carrera a muchas empresas emergentes, es una gran solución de excelente calidad, ya compite, incluso arregla problemas con inserciones de imágenes que el mismo MS Word descuadra, luego las abres otra vez en Word y ya puedes trabajar bien.
Faltan cosas interesantes como el hecho que venga con muchas mas plantillas para documentos y presentaciones, con una pequeña galería también y con el diccionario por defecto par el idioma que escogiste eso si es tontada tener que agregarlo despues.

Esperare hasta el día del lanzamiento para probarlo, y así como muchos otros OOo me ha salvado en incontables ocasiones.
