AppleWorks 2.0 is quite  good. If the appropriate Beagle Bros. Timeout
enhancements (perhaps quickspell and SuperFonts in your case), it is
very good (UltraMacros is also very good. I haven't had a chance to try
Thesaurus yet).

The regular Laser 128 (1 MHz, 128K version)  can be had  for <$400. Look
for  ads in _A+_, _Computer Shopper_, etc.  It is quite reliable. Runs
AppleWorks just fine, but originally had some problems with Beagle Bros
Macros for it. Probably all fixed now.
