StarOffice is definitely worth trying. I have no need in word processor myself,

someone sends me something in DOC format;-)), but I've tested Star on Linux
quite a bit and must say it's quite OK, IMHO.
P.S. Before you ask: instead of word processors I use TeX (more info on
www.tug.org) in a combination with ASCII editor WinEdt (www.winedt.com).
