The scalc spreadsheet will import Excel files, as well.  There's a debian
installer package for StarOffice-3.1.  You can get the S.O. stuff from
ftp.gwdg.de.  I think Caldera also has it, but that is probably in .rpm
format.  Warning--it's big:

$ du -s /usr/lib/StarOffice-3.1
75345   /usr/lib/StarOffice-3.1
