TechWhirl (TECHWR-L) is a resource for technical writing and technical communications professionals of all experience levels and in all industries to share their experiences and acquire information.
For two decades, technical communicators have turned to TechWhirl to ask and answer questions about the always-changing world of technical communications, such as tools, skills, career paths, methodologies, and emerging industries. The TechWhirl Archives and magazine, created for, by and about technical writers, offer a wealth of knowledge to everyone with an interest in any aspect of technical communications.
Both OpenOffice and AbiWord have great conversion-to-DOC filters as
well. They will both read and write to these formats.

I am looking for an effective Office-like mini-app or Java-app that I
can keep on my thumb drive so that I do not need to deal with client
mistakes of using Office 2007.
