Default Cheapest way to buy MS Word

No but it *is* for non-commercial use only.

I am in the UK. A friend of mine who is also in the UK uses Word 2000
but it doesn't have some features she needs. Things like "Legal
Blackline" and "improved Change Tracking".

What would be the cheapest (legal) way for her to get a more up to date
version of Word?

Amazon UK is showing a price of approx £70 for Word 2007's "Home &
Student Edition" (and £75 reduced from £120 for the same edition of
Office 2007.

Is the Home and Student Edition of Word a reduced function version?

Would it be cheaper if she gets an upgrade from Word 2000.

On the other hand, could she buy Word 2003 secondhand from another user
who has gone to Office 2007? Do MS licences permit this?
