Does Office have Word in it?

Yes. You can also buy Word separately. If you just need a word processor
and don't want to spend the money for Word, you can try OpenOffice
which is free. Get OO from www.openoffice.org.

Microsoft Office comes in a number of different editions, and each edition
includes a different set of components.

However, *all* of the editions include Word.

Listen to Malke, thats good advice.

Use OpenOffice, its free and you can import almost any Microsoft Office
document to it.

OR you can pay $200 or more, your choice dude!

If you are paying "$200 or more" and just want MS Word, you are paying to
much or at least your sources are asking way to much.
This is one source at half what you suggest:

Except I hear that OpenOffice (OO) won't run the macros you can write for
Word and Excel because OpenOffice uses a different programming language. So
OO is probably not a smart choice in business where you need to use known
and supported scripts across many employee. Since home users seldom use
scripts, they are probably good to go with OO.
