Does anyone know of a good downloadable word processor that will run on a Mac (OSX) and get on well with Word files? Or is that a tall order?

Edit: I've downloaded OpenOffice and will be upgrading to Panther as soon as possible. Thanks to everyone for your help!

The Panther upgrade should be OK, but backing up your data files at least is probably a good idea.

From what I remember, installing OpenOffice was quite easy (though it took a while due to the size).

I think the maiin other thing it needs is the Apple X11 Server (which you can get from Apple, and I think may also be on the Panther discs).
