>OpenOffice.org has a very powerful notion of styles. If you can get your users to use the style consistently, it can be a life saver.
Yes, that's the same thing as "document classes" in LaTeX/LyX. In fact, both are implementations of the more general concept of "logical markup" (as opposed to "physical markup", i.e. setting point sizes, typefaces etc. manually).
>It has any of the benefits as LyX.
Except that LyX uses LaTeX as its rendering engine, a professional typesetting system of the highest quality. Especially when it comes to math formulas, nothing I've ever seen comes close to it.
