I used to be unable to read Office 2000 and later files with a certain non-Microsoft Windows word processor and with StarOffice, but for as long as I've been using it regularly, OpenOffice has never had a problem with any Word document I've been exposed to (and a lot of professors at my school use Word sometimes). Perhaps that barrier is pretty flimsy too?
Not to mention writing word doc files. I've written/modified my resume in OpenOffice several times, saved it to a word format, and then sent it to word users, and heard no complaints about the formatting.. Since I dont have a licensed copy of word anymore, I haven't been able to check it, but I'd assume that it looks at least halfway decent, or I would have heard something..
