I have Word 98 and it goes back to 4.0 for compatibility. RTF is almost universally supported by word processors made after 1992 or so...even MacWrite Pro has RTF.
I agree, RTF is the best format for transporting documents around. I use it all the time to move MacWrite Pro files to OS X or Windows (although I'll sometimes use the iBook to convert them to Word 97/98/2003).
