Is it being replaced with something else preinstalled? What the heck do I tell Windows-using coworkers to use when it doesn't open a text documents automatically from clients??

I've installed Libreoffice but Linux has spoilt me as Windows needs a damn reboot to use it properly. I can't log back in (and one of the setups is also a damn server to the other) :/
