Works great is completely dependent on what you want to do. For daily writing 
of office documents it requires an - for me - undefendable amount of fiddling 
getting it setup properly, so no - LaTex is not an alternative.

However, I've seen other having reported crashes on dialog boxes, so it's a 
bit weird no one here has had the same experience ... I might just be unlucky 
I guess .... =(

Otherwise LO works nicely, although I miss the ribbon interface from MS Office 
(I know, lots of people don't).
