That's M$ and MAC trying to get you to switch over to their respective operating systems, they're both pretty gay.
Have you tried Open Office? You have the right to mushroom slap me if this doesn't work.

Try this:
Mac to PC: Chances are, you'll want to begin by converting a Mac Microsoft Works 4.0 file to use on a PC with Microsoft Word 7.0. Here are the steps to follow:
Save the Mac file to begin conversion:
* Open the Works file to be saved from the Mac's hard drive or from the network.
* Place a PC formatted disk in the floppy disk drive
* Select "Save As" from the FILE menu. From the "File Format" menu select "Word 6.0" or if that choice is not available, select "Word for Windows".
* Name the file with ".doc" for a suffix for the file name and click the "Save" button. limit file names to letters and digits (no spaces) and only 8 characters in length before the ".doc". For example, you might save the file "Unit I Test" as "unit1tst.doc".
* Select the floppy disk as the destination drive for saving & then click Save.
* (Note, it may be possible to perform conversions via your building's network - consult with your tech facilitator for assistance.
Open the converted file on the PC to complete conversion:
* Double-click the icon for the document (saved above).
* If you are using Word 7.0, save the document - it is necessary to do this so it will be a Word 7.0 document instead of a Word 6.0
* Fix any formatting problems that occurred during the conversion.
* Save the document with its new name and to the desired destination (hard drive, network, or back to the original floppy disk).
