Hi, Cris. I doubt you can get your hands on a WP 5.1 for Linux, but there are alternatives to this. I am thinking of three of them right off of the top of my head. 1. Download OpenOffice.org 1.1 from OpenOffice.org and get and install the java-access-bridge for gnome. After you configure everything right you can get some use out of OpenOffice, but it has a long ways to go before it works as well as Windows based wordprocessors. 2. You can purchase StarOffice 7, but it doesn't work that much better than OpenOffice with gnopernicus. 3. Learn a markup language such as xml or html which is totally text based, and works in any text editor you like. I would choose xml as many computer manuals such as the Mandrake users guides are written in xml, and printed out looking as good as if not better than a high priced wordprocessor like MS Word. It is simply a matter of learning xml, and learning on how to make the document look good. Hth.
