Any laptop out now that has office is a 30-90 trial version. I know this, I used to work at Best Buy and had to deal with this. The standard version of Office bought at BBY or some place similar is $400+, but you can find this cheaper off of NewEgg I'm sure.
OpenOffice is one alternative for sure. Or, you can just go ahead and get the full version of MS Office. If you are a student or teacher, or have a child that is a student, you can buy the Students and Teachers Edition of MS Office. It is the exact same as the Retail Standard version, the license is just different.
StarOffice from Sun Microsystems is another alternative.
If you are looking for a word processor only, AbiWord is also another really good alternative.
