The latest version of LibreOffice will work on your Mac Mini with Yosemite. You can install versions from the AppStore, or else download them from the LibreOffice web site. Some people have reported differences in behaviour or bugs in the AppStore versions, as these are built slightly differently from the currently available downloads on the LibreOffice website by a private company. In terms of how well it handles Microsoft Office document formats : well it depends, on the whole pretty well, but there are still some (for some people too many) issues, and no doubt always will be. No import / export filter is perfect. As for comment management, there are issues there too, especially when moving from one format to the other, but Office 2011 for Mac (which costs a damn sight more), doesn't even handle comments properly between Mac and Windows ! Perhaps things are better with the latest offering from Microsoft with Office 2016, but that still has a cost (and currently requires a yearly subscription to Office 365). Nothing is perfect, but it should be good enough, especially if the OU tech support are recommending it as a possibility. I am somewhat surprised that the OU hasn't embraced the government's own mandate for use of the ODF standard, but I guess old habits die hard amongst the teaching profession.
