Whine
Codeweavers, the people who make Windows apps run under Linux, have just released version 6.0 of CrossOver Office, with a ton of support for popular applications, notably World of Warcraft.
But according to the CodeWeavers - CrossOver Office - Change Log, they still don't support the one application I need most of all: Wordperfect for Windows.

WP Brother! I'm a clandestine WP user in a msWord office. I surreptitiously compose in WP and then convert docs to Word or pdf.
