Buying laptop and software to start up...

Hi I am planning to do some freelance work. I'm going to buy a laptop and Office software plus some specialist software for building online courses. Although I might use Office for planning out my work etc., I anticipate that what I will be handing over to clients will be learning objects built with the special e-learning software, so my question is can I buy Office 'Home and Student' (provided I buy the full business version of the e-learning software)?

Many thanks for any advice!
