OpenOffice is the way to go. That's what it
was designed for, to open Office files of all
types on platforms that don't support MS Office
(spit).

The latest version of Microsoft Word (as modified
when you "upgrade" to Windoze XP SP3 won't even
open its *own* old files. You try to open a Word 
2.0 file and it fails, telling you that you are
attempting a "security violation." You actually
have to download a patch from Microsoft to remedy
the error that *they* built into SP3.

OpenOffice rules. It does everything that Office
does, and better, and on all platforms.
