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!

Believe it or not, but TextEdit (as supplied with OS X) can read Word files.

Wow. I didn't know that. But I don't like TextEdit much - for various reasons, but most importantly for nanoing, it has no word counter :)

Might be Panther only, now that I come to think of it.

Upgrade is worth it.
