    Any person with a little intelligence can switch between both applications without the need for training. The differences between OOo and MSOffice are so minimal (for the average user) that to claim that you will need to train people is totally ridiculous.

    If needed, a simple online (ie:HTML) tutorial or FAQ can be provided to deal with the little differences between the tools. Besides, if you upgrade to a newer version of MS Office, you STILL has to spend money on training.

    The question is, do you pay a for a little training for OOo and save the money paid for the software, or do you want to pay for the BIG cost of training (according to MS, Office Vista's UI will be completely different to XP and older versions) AND the high cost of a new version of MS Office??
