So, your answer is: Yes, OpenOffice.org will work with Windows Vista. It is not compatible with Office 2007 or the OOXML file format, but
this is definitely being worked on.

James,

You can open/save Word 2007 documents in OpenOffice.org 2.1 but you must install a plug-in first. You can download it here: http://download.novell.com/SummaryFree.jsp?buildid=ESrjfdE4U58%7E Download "odfconverter-1.0.0-2.oxt" if you're using Windows or "odf-converter-1.0.0-5.i586.rpm" if you're using Linux.

You'll find installation instructions on this page: http://www.novell.com/documentation/openwg/esd/di_ooo_openxml_translator.html

OpenOffice.org 2.1 works well on Windows Vista. File open/save dialogs suffer from some aesthetic issues but this will be corrected in v2.2 that will be out soon. However, this doesn't affect the program's usability.
