As an irrelevant note of a OS X, Win32, Linux mix-user:
Fonts in Ubuntu Open Office sometimes _do_ look nice, and sometimes
not. Really. Sometimes the same Excel sheet has smooth fonts,
sometimes blockery you-know-what I mean.
The point is not getting truck-loads of "twist this and.." instructions
on what may be wrong. The point is that this happens. And I'm one of
those that just want Things to Work. Reliably. Every time.
Therefore, I favor the side of the girl in this plot. :D
