I'm not sure if Zonbu is a good deal or not. But Farhad kind of cracks on the Open Office word processor. Perhaps the version that ships with Zonbu is stripped down, but the full version of Open Office I use is 100% ready for all uses. Despite Farhad's contention that you "wouldn't want to write a book" using Open Office, I have, in fact, already done so, and am working on my second. The experience has been problem free.
The support for master documents in Open Office is excellent, allowing you to save each chapter as a separate document instead of mushing the entire thing into a single massive document. This is pretty easy to do.
