There are free trials of it, but you will eventually have to pay if you want to keep them.If you don't mind not using a brand name, you can install OpenOffice.org for free, and it has equivalents for each of those programs, in addition to allowing you to save in their formats in case you need to transfer files to another computer.

The computer comes loaded with Microsoft office products, but cannot be used until it is activated. This requires you to purchase the Microsoft version you want in order to obtain the correct key code. If it is not loaded on the computer, the key code allows you to download it from Microsoft as well. Office 2010 is a much better deal than 2013 if you can purchase a copy of it, but there are no free rides with Microsoft.

It comes with 30 day trial versions, I think.You can cheaply buy the Office suite at places like Amazon, or: http://www.softwareking.com/miva5/merchant.mvc?Screen=PROD&Store;_Code=TSK&Product;_Code=O2K10HSPKC&Category;_Code=

No it does not have Microsoft Office preinstalled. Nothing is preinstalled. I bought Office at Costco for about $120.

No, I had to purchase those extra. I bought my machine at Best Buy and I believe it was around $110 for Microsoft office. However, no computers come with this now, only a free trial period. That's because of a lawsuit that was filed against Microsoft quite a way back claiming by having these preinstalled they were creating a monopoly. You may want to look into Google Doc's, they are free and you can do your work on any computer, because they stay "in the cloud". Once you use Google doc ( at least for the powerpoint and word equivalent) you probably won't go back. Haven't tried the excel equivalent. One really nice thing about google doc's is that you can share it, and multiple people can work on the same document at the same time on different computers. Hard to explain,, but really nice to use. Good luck in your search.

No, it does not come with Microsoft Office Installed. Additionally, the product is no longer supported by HP. I've had a lot of problems with mine and it is just sitting collecting dust since no one supports the product anymore.

NO. My unit came loaded with Window's Seven, but no Microsoft Office. This you can easily add from their web site, or pick it up at Best Buy. I was kind of thinking it would have come with Windows Seven, but I was wrong. Still an excellent value, without switching to the new Microsoft software platform.

MS Office was not included when I bought it. It had some generic Asus software, I believe. It's been a while and I've uninstalled most of the software it came with and installed MS Office.

You have to buy it - this computer does not come with MS Office. (a HUGE bummer...I realized this and was very disappointing myself....not only do you have to deal with annoying Windows 8, but you don't even have basic Word or Excel.)

Microsoft Office is not included. I found it on Ebay as a download for $45.00. It works fine.

The one that I purchased had Windows Vista installed; however no Word or Excel programs. You would have to buy the software for that.

It doesn't come with the ms office suite. But thankfully it doesn't come with a lot of programs you're never going to use - just a few Lenovo programs

No, mine did not. I use Kingsoft Suite which has Writer (Word), Spreadsheet (Excel), etc. So far, they are compatible & nearly identical to MS Office.

It does not include office. From what I understand Windows 8 does not have Microsoft Office. Laptop overall is pretty good. My son uses it for gaming once in a while and he complains that it "lags" or is slow for the gaming applications. Not sure about the warranty.
