I've been getting a part-time volunteer worker in our Community Centre's cybercaf/community computer training centre to use OO.org, and recently burnt her a CD of OO.org 2.0 for Windows. She's been complaining that it works fine, but the format changes when she brings it in from her home computer to the Community Centre. I've shown her a few tips, which helped quiet some of her earlier complaints about formatting, but she still had some when I burnt a copy of it for her. I hope OO.org 2.0 has already fixed those - if not, I'll get her to describe them as accurately as possible, and pass them on. That's one of the advantages of OO.org - I don't have to engage in license misappropriation to distribute the latest versions - and when I hear about the problems, I can pass them on and know someone will take it seriously enough to do something about it.
