 |Applixware claims to support MSWord format, and appears to be on a
 |runout special for US$189 (US$69 student
 |price). http://www.linuxmall.com

I've heard from the Linux folk that the filters that come with Applixware
are very bad.  However, StarOffice for Linux has decent MSWord 6.0 conversion.
