Why Word? Good question.
We get a ton of RFPs from the State of California for consulting and programming projects. Many of these are heavily formatted with lines, arrows, graphics, etc., and O.O. 1.x does not handle many of them well. Also, while I find the O.O. wordprocessor OK, another person in our office who does a lot of writing does not like it, so we installed Word 97 for her (via Codeweavers.com Crossover Office) and it works fine... problem solved.
