For fun rename the file .ZIP and open it in winzip. You can see the document in it's native XML format with any pictures as separate files.

DOCX is just a way of removing the Microsoft only format and making it an open standard. Quite cool. You will see some style sheets, an XML document plus a few other files. All word does is format it for the screen. You can get quite a few programs that will open them including the latest versions of open office.
