I've used Microsoft Word, Microsoft Works, Word Perfect, and AbiWord.
I usually use AbiWord, however, due to some of the glitches that appear from time to time I might have to go back to using Works or Word.
The benefit of AbiWord was that it loaded up quickly, and didn't lag at all. The glitches I'm talking about are when text sometimes gets stuck and you have to delete it, rather than writing over it. Or sometimes when you print unknown spaces appear. I think that happens when you copy and paste at times. Also it's free and it's included in some Linux distros which is why I liked using it, since when Windows would fail on me, I'd just boot up into Linux and open it up in AbiWord without a problem.
