Arthur, I use the iWork suite on my Mac, and love it -- especially the ability to "save as" Word, etc. documents for my clients using PCs. Give it a try.

We’ve tried Open Office (Libre Office) and it’s not working, the online version of Word falls short of what we need, too. It doesn’t look like you can buy a standalone copy of Word.
