It will not interfere with any other application. The only thing you have to be careful about, is the screen where you select which applications you want to be default for Microsoft Office files.

OpenOffice has excellent, though not perfect compatibility with Microsoft Office, though it currently cannot read or write files from Microsoft Office 2007.
