Now that OpenOffice 3.2 is out, I can add "open PowerPoint files without crashing every five minutes" to the list of what Windows can to that Linux can't.
The other one on my list currently is...
WYSIWYG bibiliography and citation management with seamless export/import to a Word compatible format.
Everything else I can live without, but I don't have a choice about office compatibility. It's humiliating to have to borrow a Windows computer every time my work requires me to read or edit Microsoft Office documents. The ten varieties of skinnable, scriptable media players are all well and good but until we have some apps that can reliably interoperate with the other 90% of the world, Linux is just not going to be ready for the desktop.
