...for those who don't want to spend $200 to $300 dollars on MS Office.

They have an office suite that is compatible with MS OFFICE. The download takes 12 to 15 min with a DSL connection(at least for me). The best part is the cost.......FREE!!!!!!
I have been using it for over a year with no problems.

You may want to check it out anyway, as they have not only the word processor, but a spreadsheet, presentation, HTML editor, and a draw program that are all MS Office compatible.
