Microsoft Opens "Open XML" for Word for Mac.

Cost: $0

Synopsis: Microsoft has a released a converter for .docX file formats for Word 2004. Good news...it works. Bad news, it works one way, and does not support Excel nor PowerPoint. The word is that we should expect the reader for Excel and PowerPoint near the end of the summer. It should be noted however that Office 2008 will be released prior to the full conversion solution for 2004...how not so odd.

Alternatively, you can just download NeoOffice, or read your .docx in TextEdit.
