I would love to use LibreOffice instead of Microsoft Office, but there are still minor things lacking that I require. For example, I need to search and replace manual page breaks. This is not possible in Writer, yet seems a simple and obvious task. There are a few other simple omissions that keep me stuck on MS Office. Maybe 4.5 will rock.
