"I used to have a a very "lite" version of MS office on my Cassiopeia back in 1995, so what ever happened to these useful little programs?" they were built into the units. Some are still around on ebay and are pretty reliable little units. If interested search for some of the following. Most are similar systems (Windows CE), just different sizes.

mobilepro 880
mobilepro 900
mobilepro 780 or 790
jornada 800

google Windows CE devices and you should find others.

Doubt you should pay over 100, cheaper if you watch and wait. You will see them listed in the hundreds because they sold for over a grand new but that was years ago.

Or if you don't mind some scrolling a pocket pc would do, they have pocket office as well on most of them, like the del x50, 51 etc.
