How many people actually use open document formats over MS Office formats?
Quite a large no. even those using M$. Whnever u load Oo.o on a user's machine briefly explain the need for standards and show him the pdf icon for exporting. Also tell him the file is now not easily editable by whomever he is sending it to. From then on 95% of his docs will be exported as pdf. He also quickly notices the missing pdf converter in M$.

Bingo! Happened to a few of my friends.
The only problem now, though, is that M$ Office 2007 kicks ass and most of them have the pirated copies.
