Star Office is probably the best bet.

OpenOffice is another. It is free, while StarOffice is not anymore.

I believe that StarOffice is based on Openoffice. BTW- staroffice is free to students, teachers, and educational institutions. It was recently updated to version 7.0.
I use both MS Office and StarOffice where I work. Staroffice is powerful enough for just about anyone but advanced power users. (For instance, it isn't as good at making complex forms that are linked to spreadsheet data). |

Open Office 1.1 is free for the downloading. It can read, edit, and be saved as MS Office files.
