It may well be a matter of what features one is looking
for. I last used Open Office for editing 150 pages of
notes for a math class. It wasn't really worth the effort
to do it in TeX, but I did need a lot of symbols.
When I've tried this kind of thing in MS-Word, it was
quite frustrating. Every installation seemed to (not)
have different symbols, and often what looked fine on
the screen would print with lots of empty squares.
I'm sure there's a way to get MS-Word to behave properly,
but I have better things to do.
With Open Office, I downloaded and installed, and it
worked perfectly ten minutes later. Since then, I've
never found a feature I wanted that it lacked.
