I recently also got a copy of Word 2007 cheap (inc Excel) and promptly installed the free 3rd party Menu add-on that makes it like Word 2002-2003. Easily found on Web, easy to add and replaces the evil ribbon. I also bought a copy of 2003 for WINE (it's the only one that works properly on WINE). I Have Word 2003, Word 2002 and Word2007 on VMs and old XP computers. One VM is a clone of my 2002 Laptop using free MS tool.

Styles are much easier to manage in Writer than Word and I always convert txt documents to docx and apply styles etc.

I also have Word2.0a, which might be the first decent version. You can run DOSBox on Android, and install win 3.0 on it!
