> Whether you love or hate Word, love or hate Microsoft itself, in the end you have Apple to thank (or curse) for this programs survival

This article is wrong or outright fake news/Microsoft PR.

>The $150 million investment

Microsoft didnt "invest into Apple". Jobs forced Gates to settle multiple lawsuits (including outright stealing code and shipping it in Windows as their own) that if not settled would have killed MS a year later when DOJ pounced

The Register just wrote an article on creating a bootable USB version of DOS to make a distraction free writing machine. [1]

They include three freeware word processors "MS Word, Arnor Protext, an outliner, and the WordPerfect Editor" and released it on Github [2]. But, they mention other word processors in the article and their current status (free/paid/etc).
