Download openoffice. It's free, legal, and pretty good.

I think that the question relates to the physical hardware, rather than software to run on a computer. Word processors as hardware did exist some years ago, but have been totally superseded by computers, just as typewriters are all but non existent these days.
Buy a cheap second hand computer with Office on it, probably from an ad in your local free paper, and also buy a printer, which are remarkably cheap these days, and voila! problem solved.

Download Open Office for free. It's similar to MS-Office and the word processor is compatible with MS-word.

Why buy when you can get it for free!
Check out the Open Office project, which provides a free open source based office suite to rival Microsoft office.
Here is a link to the word processing product:

You can get a pirated copy of MS Office for about USD 3 in many countries.
