I guess there are, but my impression is that there are degrees of compatability 
once you do need to read it into an MS application. Or, you have to read a .doc 
or .rtf which someone else sent you in one of these alternative applications. 
The claim with ThinkFree is that it is compatible to the point of also using 
the same file extensions. That is something that isn't the default under SO or 
others.
