I've been pretty happy with OpenOffice, and I'm glad they've now got a real viable option for Mac users :) I’m glad you switched!

It's way more flexible, format-wise, than Microsoft Office. Was it really totally painless - no learning curve? I haven't used Microsoft Office in a while so I don't remember how similar they are.
