I think it's the Linux desktop software style (up until 2012 at least), complete with gradient overuse.

But for the most part, it does look like Word 2k3. And among the people who aren't using Google Docs, Woord 2k3 is pretty enticing.

What OS are you on? LibreOffice doesn't have gradients for me. That is on Linux, but with Breeze Dark system style. (Linux doesn't have a default-style, in case you're not aware.)
Sorry, I guess I meant "style of a lot of software I've used in Linux". I used to be in SUSE with KDE, had a habit of seeing gradients and the like.
Ah, that was probably a little while ago, too, then, i.e. still on KDE Plasma 4 instead of Plasma 5. Someone else posted a screenshot of LibreOffice under Plasma 5 (with the non-dark Breeze-style): http://imgur.com/a/H6r0n

I also really like the way it looks on Linux Mint: https://3.bp.blogspot.com/-a8nJUriHD9U/VdC7bojVgpI/AAAAAAAAw...
