There was, at one time, a VAX/VMS version of Word Perfect.  I think 
there may have been a user contributed spreadsheet but it didn't look 
too much like Excel.  I think there's a browser but I never really 
needed one; I'm happy to use Windows for the things Windows does well.
I could wish that it didn't enrich Billzeebub. . . .
