Also was never able to take class notes in a multi-level bullet format. So I switched back to Microsoft Office.

Well in fairness I only use it for writing and for doing the odd spreadsheet, but up to now I've not had a single problem. Mind you, it does have a presentation module, though whether or not it handles Powerpoint I couldn't say. I can open MS Office files easily, though again I've never crossed paths with a Mac, so can't comment there. I suppose if it's impacting on your academic work then you have to go with what suits you best, but for me, here at home, it's the best and easiest solution.
As our family motto says:
