I've been stumping for OO and odf at work for a while. I changed my OOo-Text to default to Doc, Calc, to XLS and Impress to PPT. Why? Because users seem to think that DOC is "document" and XLS is "spreadsheet" and that's as far as they get. Never mind that these formats stop working across new versions. Never mind that they send me a corrupted MS file and I repair it by loading it in OO-Text. And my personal favorite; "What do you mean Microsoft Word doesn't come with Windows?!!!!"
