OpenOffice renders documents better than MS Office

I was having a terrible time trying to do a complex product catalog using Microsoft Word 2003 on my Windows laptop. I was unaware that OpenOffice.org had a version of their software that would run on Windows xp.

I downloaded it, installed it, and opened my Word document with the OOo Writer. My document not only looked better, but it actually understood the formatting that I used and rendered it correctly!

FOSS wins over Microsoft once again.
