This is a report on office 2003
I do use Crossover too (I have been a paid up member for about 5 years)
but
in this case I run Office XP in Crossover but want to test Office 2003
in
wine, especially since wine has now nominally reached maturity with the
1.0 release. However it seems not so easy to get at a good up to date
howto for running office apps (which are essential for me to be
compatible
with other people I share documents with who use MS).
I don't use any office suite for more than the basics. What kind of
differences keep you using M$ Office vs. open office? Is it some
missing functionality or just compatibility issues? In my somewhat
limited use of things like spreadsheets, word-processor, etc I haven't
noticed any significant difference. I haven't had any issues opening
M$ office files with open office but again my needs are pretty basic,
maybe with really complex spreadsheets there is a problem? I haven't
tried anything with M$Office 2007 docs. I'd appreciate being
enlightened on the topic if anyone can spare me an explanation.

FWIW, I've seen problems with Office being able to display tables
correctly in a .doc file that had been modified with OpenOffice.
