This information is from the "horse's mouth" so to speak: ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ OpenOffice.org runs fine on Vista. The current version (2.1) has some minor bugs that are only annoyances (e.g. OOo uses the "old" file dialog instead of the pretty(?) new one from Vista). They will be fixed in OpenOffice.org 2.2 Some problems with system integration (e.g. showing thumbnails and document property columns in the Explorer) are known that can't be fixed until Microsoft publishes the necessary interfaces. :-( But they will not have any impact on running OpenOffice.org. You can use it on Vista as you can on XP.
