Microsoft Word
CrossOver Office supports both Word 97 and Word 2000.
Known Limitations
When clicking on an hyperlink and after a few other operations, 
      Word stalls for a few seconds.
The ClipArt gallery does not work because Microsoft Office installs 
      a version of the MFC dll (mfc42.dll) which is out of date. The 
      workaround is to copy this library from a working Windows partition.
The mouse pointer that is displayed is sometimes not the right one.
      In particular this has been reported to happen with the hourglass 
      cursor. So if the hourglass cursor is displayed for some time, check

      whether Word really is busy. This apparently does not happen with
all 
      versions of Word.
The Office Assistant does not work well yet and usually causes 
      malfunctions. Thus it is disabled by default.  // HECK YEAH!!! =)
