The whole open source/proprietary war is pointless because each side uses
lies and hyperbole to win various arguments. The open source side is not
innocent of using FUD, sorry. Windows 7 is nice, better than most Linux
distros for desktop use in my opinion, and no-one is going to change my mind
by spewing anti-MS comments that do not negate the flaws in the competition.
I dislike Microsoft as much as the next person, but I (currently) despise a
lot about Linux for desktop use as well, hence the use of Windows 7.

Needless to say this doesn't have anything to do with my problem. This
problem I'm having has never happened to me before (at least with
OpenOffice), so I'm wondering what's going on. I can live with a few
comparability issues such as formatting, but if Writer is writing a broken
form of the .doc format when it used to work, I'd like to know what's going
on.

Interestingly enough, the .docx format works perfectly for my little test...

No problems with the new MS format, interesting because 3.3.x was very
erratic with properly reading/saving to that format.
