I've been using SkyDrive for a while now, and it generally feels more usable to me. Is there a reason people prefer LibreOffice over that? I haven't used it as much, but it feels like I can't be sure what the document will look like back in Microsoft Office once I'm done editing it.

Reason #1: it runs on my platform.

Reason #2: open source, so lock-in is (in theory) a non-problem so long as there are people who find it useful.
