OpenOffice 2.0.1 vs MS Office

I have both OO.o 2.0 as well as MS Office XP installed on my system. In 
general I find OO to be highly compatible. I have had some problems with 
some of the templates for writing white papers. In some of those cases I 
used MS Word and there was even some interesting compatibility issues with 
Word itself. 
I've also used OO Impress and found very few issues in the OO.o 2.0 (I did 
have some issues in the 1.0 time frame). 
I've had no problems going back and forth between Excel and OO.o Calc except 
that Calc does have some limits that Excel does not have.
