The Microsoft tax....

First, congrats on the new machine!  Second, it depends on how picky they are about said Word docs.  Do they have to be .docx, or can they be the older .doc format?
If said parties accept .doc, then you'll do fine with LibreOffice.  If they expect .docx, you need M$ Office.  Full stop.  None of the free ones do .docx right.
As for Windows, I know of no reason to spring for Ultimate.  There are, however, a handful of reasons to spring for Professional, like you had before, and that upgrade is actually less than the Office one.

I've been writing a bit.
