AppleWorks, which I think still comes free with consumer Macs, can open (and possible save) Word files.

ooo jools I got a question, I got my new macbook pro yesterday and only really started playing on it properly today as last night I was reinstalling the os (get rid of the things I didnt want such as 1gb of extra languages) anyway on me dads macbook he can use 2 fingers to tap on his trackpad and it right clicks, but on my one I can't find the option, I upgrade all the firmwares and software, but cannot see the option. Im just wondering if I can actually get this function on my mbp as its quite cool?
Cheers

ignore that request jools, after allot more searching me and my ad found a program that does it.
**********NOTE TO ALL MACBOOK PRO 15" USES**************
If you want to enable your trackpad to right click using 2 fingers follow the link below for a download patch which allows it (its like when you scroll using two fingers, but you just tap for the right click) Download then install it and it enables a extra setting on your trackpad like:
