>>The (OOo) usability is horrible compared to commercial alternatives.<<
Give me some examples. The ONLY one I know of is the lack of a format painter in Word that doesn't exist in the version of OO that I have. Oh, and envelope printing might also be a problem for some users.
What else? My law firm has gone completely to OO and we won't be buying MS Office in the future.
It lacks an enduser database such as Microsoft Access. It lacks macro support (which prevents it from loading and using a huge number of corporate documents). Advanced formatting doesn't convert properly. No grammar checker. The thesaurus is crap. Missing reading layout. No Outlook/PIM alternative. In short, it's the Taiwan rubber-dog-crap version of MS Office.
