Yes, you will have to buy and install Word, Excel, and/or any other software applications you plan to use. This PC comes with a Windows Operating System installed, but a Windows Operating System does not include Microsoft Office Applications like Word and Excel.

If your machine came, as mine did, with Windows 7, you will still have to purchase Microsoft Office programs separately and install them yourself or be the tech dept. where you purchased them They do not come as party of your Windows operating system. Or you could also find an Office suite of programs on the Web which are available on a rental basis or some even as freeware. Unfortunately, I am unable to give you specific links.

That is correct. Most computers come with a 30 day free trial. When I bought 2 of these computers for myself I already had Microsoft Office so all I had to do was install it.

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

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.

You need to buy an office suite unless you get OpenOffice or Libre Office, both of which are free downloads and work well.

No. You'll need to buy it separately. If you buy Office Home and Student online (i.e., delivered online), it will cost you $139 extra. That comes with Word, Excel, PowerPoint, and One Note. If you buy Home and Business online, it will cost $219 extra. That version comes with the four programs I mentioned before as well as Outlook. If you buy the Office suite at a store (e.g., Office Max or Office Depot), it will cost more.

No, you have to buy it later. It comes with office trial. Or install openoffice or another free option.

Mine had a trial version of Microsoft Office. You would eventually have to pay.

No. You have to buy Microsoft Office2013 or you can buy Word and Excel individually, I think.

Word as in Microsoft Word? No, it is not bundled, at least not from factory, maybe you can get a vendor that preinstalls it separately.

I had to install Microsoft Office separately. There are some applications that were included but since I'm more comfortable with Word, I wanted to continue using those programs for recordkeeping and letter writing.

No.Office Pro would cost as much or more than the tower. Install Open Office Suite instead. Just as good and it's FREE

Word starter and Excel starter. It's not the trial version. You need to purchase Office 2010 to have all the options activated in these soft-wares.

Microsoft word was not on my unit. You will have to purchase it separately.

MS Office is readily available as a third party product and is fairly simple to install. It can be purchased with media kit or usually quite a bit cheaper as a download.

You can use MS 365 on it, which is a web based version of office. There is a subscription fee for 365, I think it is around $6 a month for one machine.
