Since MS does not make a version of Word for Linux, the next best thing would be
StarOffice.

See:
www.sun.com   (free download ...  50 - 60 MB)
5.2 should be out soon if not already. It has lots of improvements.

Like MS Word, StarOffice isn't small. We can't have our cake and eat it too all 
the
time... at least its cheaper.
