Does anyone have any experiences with OpenOffice.org yet?

A former editor of mine used Open Office and it always inserted garbage characters into any Word files I sent him. Which of course, he didn't bother to take out because "Open Office will read anything". Anyway, probably more his problem with not being willing to fix the software's error but it still left a bad impression with me.

I had no problem with it when I used it. Bugs get fixed fairly quickly since it's open source. Early versions are probably VERY different from today's versions. So if you've used it in the past and had problems, I almost guarantee they've been fixed.
