About writing

What's the most comfortable and the best tool/software for writing?. Because I myself use Celtx, but I want to know if there's anything better.

I've downgraded yet another step - good old Open Office seems to work. Word, now that would be a luxury!

What?! Learn yet another programme? No thanks! For all its faults Word does do the job...

I'm sure that most people stick with it simply because its the first thing they learn - and, until it gets so bad that they are annoyed/frustrated into action - they then stick with it... It's called "inertia"...

I will be genuinely surprised if anyone here uses anything other than Word. I keep saying I'm going to treat myself to Scrivener, but it hasn't happened yet.
