I've been able to open .xls files and do simple things without too much problem.

However, I do use Impress and create/save/edit .ppt files with it.  Have found endless problems.  Notes are invisible.  
When I create circles and figures on top of graphics in order to point out features, I have to make them transparent.  
Then the "transparency" won't save!  I have to do it again every time.  Other graphics handling functions can be odd.  
You can't move slides to specific places within the set via drag and drop ...
