Do you use OpenOffice instead of MS Office?

Openoffice really high level software package, which can do all tasks related to office works including writing documents, creating spreadsheets, preparing presentations, creating databases, etc. I see no significant difference from expensive MS Office package. So far all tasks can be done with Opensource. The only thing I have noticed is that it runs bit slower in older computers. I would say Home users do not need MS office for simple tasks like document writing. How about you - do you use OpenOffice or you prefer to stick with MS Office?

I use MS office package instead of open office. I feel there are much more options and its very easy to use and learn. It is very user friendly.
