KDE has an office suite. I think there are several others, but I haven't
used them.

I know of one free Xserver for the PC - I tried it once - I thought it was
horrible.  If your looking for free - you may want to try vnc, and export
your entire desktop.  There are several good Xservers for windows if you
actually need an Xserver.  A company called Hummingbird makes one that I
personally like called exceed.  There is another good one that is a lot
less expensive, I can get the name of it  - I just don't remeber it off
the top of my head. 

Hope that helps,
Anthony
