Word Perfect 2000/Fedora Core 4

[Cyber Source]

abiword will do word perfect files. There also is a perl script around 
that I have used in the past that would convert entire directories full 
of word perfect docs to open office . But if you dont like oo, check out 
abiword. I have yet to this day seen anything in wine work well that 
people are happy with, just too buggy. VMware is also a choice but that 
costs around $150. I could explain alot more about the above, let me 
know if your interested. Peter
