Have a look at http://www.stardivision.com/. They have StarOffice 3.1, a
complete office solution for different platforms, in public beta now.
Noncommercial use is free AFAIK and the Wordprocessor, StarWriter, can
read/write MS-Winword-6.0, _and_ has built in HTML capabilities. You can
even surf the Web from the Wordprocessor.

Note: I am in no way affiliated with Stardivision. I use it at university
as an alternative to booting Windows. Now there's only one thing I miss: A
customizable telnet client with remote saving/printing capabilities for
the Austrian Press Agency...
