็Really? I have had more OpenOffice crash/freeze on me in 2 years of using it (on Linux) than MS Office for over 10 years (including 2 years running in VM)

I would seriously fork money over if MS would ever build Linux version.

People have different experiences, right?

I have never lost a document in LibreOffice, Vim/gvim, AbiWord, WordPerfect (long time ago), or OOO.

I lost a ton of documents, sometimes to the cost of many thousands of dollars, in Word. (Disclaimer: haven't used word since like 2010 or so)

People get burned, and thus jaded, by lots of different, sometimes opposing or contradictory, experiences.
