Lotus 1-2-3 is good, but if you're going to be running X,
why not take a look at eXclaim!?

eXclaim! has complete Lotus v2.01 compatibility, with
extensions that make sense in the Unix/X environment.  I
like it a lot.

It needs about 5 MB of disk space (fonts take up a lot of
space) and about 1.5 - 2.0 MB of RAM.
