I've been a Linux user for ages, and I disagree. Readable yes, but the formatting is almost always off (in Writer and Calc).

Basically unusable if the docs have to be shared back with MS Office users.

Make sure you have exactly the same fonts available (Cambria, etc) as the Windows machine. That solves many of the formatting issues.

Same here, fonts are very important
