Hello,
	Well if do go with SuSE we have a plethora of word proccesors.
SuSE comes with Word Perfect, Star Office, and a demo of Applixware.  I
think SuSE is the best choice just on number of applications available
with it.  I don't know anybody that had to go looking for much to do what
they wanted after a SuSE install.  From cdrecording to spreadsheats -
it has the most applications with it hands down.

Thanks,
Anthony
