OpenOffice vs. Closed Microsoft Office

Color me happy when I found this program called OpenOffice!  This Open Source program allows the normal home user to do just about everything needed for the, otherwise very expensive, Microsoft Office suite.  I do not believe I could substitute OpenOffice for my work documents, presentations, and/or spreadsheets, but in the home, this would be more than acceptable.  The components of OpenOffice allow for normal number manipulation, document processing, and the normal options for presentations.  I prefer the Microsoft Office versions, but that may be because I have been working on them for years and I am very comfortable with the newer, sleek layout and options available to me through the Microsoft.
