"Intuitive, user friendly, easy to learn, no jargon"
Version: OpenOffice.org Portable 3.2
Pros
Not challenging to work with. Mostly self explanatory
Cons
Nothing is wrong with this suite!
Summary
All software should have the attributes of Open Office. I mainly use it for the word processor program, in my home. I have no business interests.

"If portability is necessary, OK."
Version: OpenOffice.org Portable 3.2

It's good to carry OpenOffice on USB.

Initializing is too long. It could take several minutes.

"Perfect to put on portable HD to take along"
Version: OpenOffice.org Portable 3.2
Pros
Loads in directories and subdirectories of your choosing, allowing you to place the programs on to portable HDs, travel drives, etc.
Cons
I found none as of this writing.
Summary
I use OpenOffice.org software every day on my home computer. Other computers I use do not have this software. I like the look and feel of OpenOffice. With this app, I can take my full OpenOffice program with me wherever I go. I placed it on a 30gb hd in a pocket-sized enclosure powered by the USB port. Now, wherever I go, and whatever computer I use, I can use my favorite programs, save my files, and not interfere with my friend's or customer's software or programs. Furthermore, my saved files are never located on their computers.

"Excellent suite, compared to MS Office, a tad slower."
Version: OpenOffice.org Portable 3.2
Pros
Works excellently and (as) well as MS Office. For it being a free business suite, it is well worth the investment of learning its intricacies, which are not that many if one is familiar with Office. I recommend it to "starving students"!
Cons
No presentation package and a bit slow. It reminds me of a cross compiler/interpreter I wrote back in the 80's in a (Pascal) computer science class......it was great but was slower than the real compiler!
Summary
I like its ODF format which I can easily re-save into MS Office formarts. It permits me to work with so many different Office suites like Ashampoo Office and Jarte and Gnumeric and Kingsoft Office 2010, etc....
