Well, from I'm facing right now. The big problem for user in using Linux is in PRINTING. Many times Linux (and OOo ?) behaves very strangely. For example (see my thread about calc printing from right to left and not the other around): my users want to print a calc sheet in landscape layout using Epson LX300 dot matrix printer with Centos4.2. The sheet got printed ok, but starting from the right side of the sheet first, this makes all the margin goes wrong! Oh man!
