I've just started learning LyX and I very much like the idea about how it works. I once did a 250 page document in Word and I literally spent more time trying to get Word to print it correctly than I did writing the doc.

But I've heard the LyX on Linux is one of the best Desktop Publishing systems (not word processor, different genre) around. It is a "full screen" type interface to Donald Knuth's TeX publishing system. Cost: free.
