If you are in the UK there are legitimate very cheap deals to be had on the full Microsoft Office License from RM the Basement and Software4students. I assume that similar deals are available in other counteries. Alternatively you could download free Libreoffice of OpenOffice, both of which can open open and create Microsoft Office documents

There's no such thing as "cheap" Microsoft anything!!
That said, the best thing to do is to shop around and find the best deal you can.
Try starting with this site: http://www.pricewatch.com and see what the various sellers are offering for prices.
I was recently shopping for XP (home, pro, etc.) and the only "deal" I was able to find was XP Home but in an OEM version. I saw no deals on XP Pro, so I wish you luck there.
Regarding Office 07, I think you are going to be very disappointed trying to find a "deal" on it at all. Even Office 2003 is still up there in price and the only real shot at a deal is if you get lucky on ebay and are the lowest bidder on a copy. Good luck though.

Open Office can save all your documents in MS formats. It can also be set to save that way automatically. If you are using the machine at home and taking your work in this is a good option. Be very careful with shared software, for XP the problems with activation can leave you with a dead machine.

You could download and try Open Office. It is very functional. It will open just about any document, and it is free.
