For starting out, this should be a good system.

Yes. WIEN requires Unix (not Linux), f90, a good BLAS (and for finegrain
parallel: MPI, Scalapacks.
However, you have to configure compiler options,... yourself, because most
likely nobody else has access to such a machine.

The same as with every other software: Calculate the total energies of all
participating molecules/atoms/solids (with and without vacancy, probably
with supercells) and take proper E-differences.
