[libreoffice-users] I can't believe this - Is the competition is really this bad?

In doing a bit of research for a previous post, I wanted to make a comparison
to MS Office and some of the issues that the Documentation Foundation should
look into to strengthen LO in the field.

Now, for full disclosure, I haven't used any MS program any more than when I
absolutely had to (very occasionally; yes, I started with Word Perfect for
DOS..) but I had no idea that that the MSO Suite was, and is, so evidently
flawed!!! 

Here's but a few comparisons:

Is Office 20xx really that bad? I mean I know how to "kill Clippy", but it's
almost painful to read that it's not just "out of the box, onto the screen
and onto paper" for them.

It makes me a bit less opinionated a bit when I see some nagging flaws and
glaring issues in OO, but as I see it, these should also be literal targets
for the DF to use in developing LO in the near future!
