1. OpenOffice (http://www.openoffice.org/)
2. AbiWord (http://www.abisource.com/)
3. LaTeX (may be hard to learn but the best)

LyX ( http://www.lyx.org ) makes learning LaTeX unnecessary for many
tasks.

If you don't need anything too fancy maybe Wordpad will do what you need.
Comes with pretty much every version of Windows.

wordpad doesn't have the features i need. openoffice has fitted the bill
perfectly and running like a charm, very impressed.

By the way, how are your negotiations with M$ going? There are rumours
in the ICT business about a megadeal.
