The thing that I like the most about it is that I can create complete
documents with hyperlinked tables of contents, indexes, and the like,
which my peers at my current place of work really like when it comes to
documentation for things that we do. :-) And, the fact that
OpenOffice.org is all that I need to generate said hyperlinked table,
it's all the better, and that means no requirement for a license cost.
Also, when you save something in PDF format, it will print right,
anywhere... However I cannot even do that with Microsoft Word from
machine to machine sometimes, because there are times where the document
does not render correctly, even from the same version of Word on my
laptop, to another PC at work. PDF doesn't give me that issue.
I can't say it's inferior in any way. Sure, supporting software might
be a bit expensive in terms of disk space, but I can't beat the value.
Microsoft Word (indeed, Microsoft Office) is worse for the size.
