That's a good point :)

Unfortunately it's too late to change strings at this point, but this
problem should be fixed for Narwhal. I will label it as such soon…

Bug description:
Binary package hint: ubiquity

The slide for OpenOffice in Ubiquity (viewing now on the Netbook ISO Wubi 
install) says:

OpenOffice.org is fully compatible with Microsoft Office" and that is not true.

It is "mostly" compatible... or somewhat compatible, but not fully compatible 
due to Microsoft's heavy use of VBscript and such in Office tools like Access 
and Excel.

Also, MS Word docs do not always render properly in OO and vice versa due to 
some variance in how the configurations for each document type is handled.

This is a very common complaint about using OpenOffice and saying that it is 
"fully compatible" is not accurate.
