If the machines are on a network you can use ftp (binary mode) to make 
the transfer.  Once you have it in the PC, Word has converters which will 
enable you to process and save as a Word for Windows file.

I haven't tried this but suspect that uploading the file via a modem 
connection might also work with something like 'zmodem'.

Word has many other converters besides those which come with the program 
and microsofty will provide these upon request.  The Wordstar to Word 
converter, for example, is quite good.
