Be honest. How often do
you use the Merge Table Cells feature in Microsoft Word? If your answer
is rarely or never, because you just need the word processing basics,
then AbiWord may be the Word replacement you're looking for.

Not only is AbiWord free,
but it also has the same look and feel as Word. The program's features
include basic character formatting (bold, underline, italics, and the
like), a spelling checker, unlimited undo/redo, a find-and-replace
function, and image insertion. It can import and export in many formats,
including Word 97/2000, RTF, Palm, Psion, and XHTML documents. It also
has the advantage of working across both Windows (95, 98, NT) and UNIX
(Linux, BeOS, Solaris, FreeBSD) platforms.
