I just checked the specs on the Laptop im 99.9999% getting.
Microsoft Works 9 is included which has word.

Im still confused and worried about Vista. And how to set up the internet for it.

It would be nice to have the internet set up for my house but the only time I need the internet is at school which has wireless internet.

I know NOTHING about wi-fi or how to set it up. I'm afraid to get the laptop, turn it on and only be able to play solitaire cuz i cant figure anything else out :/
