after learning the UI.
Users leaving an older office suite behind must face learning the UI. Either it's the ribbon (a UI unique to MS products) or OpenOffice with a more standard set of menus and tool bars. As stated already in this thread: once a user is familiar with a particular UI, they feel they've mastered the software.
I've made my choice. I'd rather have a freely obtained office suite. For my needs, it does more than what I could ask for.
As someone once said to me (I have no idea how accurate this is):
95% of users use about 5% of what the MS Office suite can do.
