Nice office suite
by cane
OpenOffice is a very handy tool for my needs. Most of the time I use the Writer and the Calc components.
Maybe something is still counterintuitive or insufficiently autometed, and the rendering is slightly slow, but the core is steady.
One thing I'm dissatisfied with is that there are no official x86-64 builds. This is especially frustrating with x86-64 Linux distros.

Bloated and Confusing
OpenOffice.org is bloated and is just as confusing as the horrible Microsoft Office it's trying to clone. If all you're looking for is a free Microsoft Office then this is it. If you want something that you can use, that isn't slow and bloated. That gives you good looking results... well look somewhere else. I'd recommend LaTeX, but the learning curve means that it isn't necessarily a suitable option for everyone.
Pros:
- Free
