My trial on MS Office has run out and, as of now I can't afford to pay the ridiculous, extortion price that Microsoft Charge.
I just want it for Word too and I hate the thought of being ripped off and paying for a product where 90% of it I won't use
So, is there any free-word processors that are compatable with MS Word. Where I can open my saved word documents & save them and, anyone I send the documents too can open them on their version of MS Office?
I've found one, IBM Lotus Symphony which is apparently compatable.

Is this one okay and is it truly Word compatable?
I don't wanna sound tight-fisted but I honestly can't afford to pay for Microsoft Office at the prices they charge, especially when 90% of the features I'd never use (excel, office, spreadsheet etc)
