Free Microsoft Office Word alternatives.

Hi. I have Microsoft Office Word 2007 Home and Student edition on my PC. I bought the disc from Software4students some years ago. 
I tried to install the program on my new laptop, using the disc and the product key. But the product key was rejected as being incorrect.
 I take it that I am not going to be able to use the disk.
 My question is: are free Word 2007 alternatives worth trying? With the laptop I just need to be able to type documents, so basic word processing is all that I have in mind.
 Thanks in advance,
Laurence

Hi triptotokyo. Thanks for your reply. I was just checking that I was not going to be warned to keep well away from free alternatives. I feel easier about it now, and will try one of them.
so thanks again,
Laurence

Your new PC is probably not accepting the Key because you failed first to uninstall the preinstalled Office trial version.

The Office version from software4students is, for Home & Student version, licensed for 3 working PC's

Hi Palcouk. I'll make sure the trial version is completely uninstalled, then I 'll try again with my Word CD. Thanks again
