Yes, I have full Office with outlook, excel, powerpoint, etc... there is plenty of space, and it runs great. Windows runs on its own drive, and I added it to that drive with room to spare. The 1225B s a full capability laptop

There were several versions of MS Office 2007 - this is the simplest, but by no means is it lacking. As an experienced user, I've found no features lacking. However, one thing you should be aware of- it only allows you to load up the program 3 times. So if you have Windows crash twice (it's happened to me), you've used up the license.

For ever thing I need it for it works fine I can get on the net with it work on office documents using Microsoft Office and it has outlook which i use for mail and calendar. You are right about it not running any application that are not in the store. If it had Access Database that would even be better.

Nope not mine came with xp office. I have had no problems with it, but I'm not a big game fan. The memory capacity is the thing.

The laptop comes with the trial of MS Office installed if I remember correctly. I loaded an open-office program on it (which works fine) and then a week or so later bought MS Office 2010 Pro through the Federal Govt' discount page--if you have a student discount I think it will link you to the same page and that would probably be your best (and least expensive) bet.

Go for 2010. Office 2003 is severely dated in several areas, even when it was introduced.

you can install MS office 2004 and all other older applications. MS Office 2011 and newer applications run on this laptop as well. Regards, Jordan

I would recommend an Office 365 personal subscription for $7.99/month. It's what I use on my Chromebook if I want the highest degree of compatibility with other MS Office users. For my own documents, I use the built in Word Processor and Spreadsheet. They are compatible with Word, but occasionally not perfectly (margin's off, etc). Now if someone would buy the Chromebook to replace by Acer C710, "that would be great (from Office Space)"!

It come with a limited version. I loaded OpenOffice. It's free and works with all MS apps.

I thought it would come with a full version of office -- but it was just a trial version. I think it should have however as it uses a tablet processor and is running windows 8, so it's probably a mistake in preloaded software.

D. Howard is right. I've used Open Office on my NC10 and it's great.I don't think you'll miss MS Office.Bob H

I haven't had that experience, but I am having trouble with the 64 gig memory. I have windows 8 and Office 365 installed and I am out of storage space. Get wierd freezes and messages pretty often now. No way to upgrade the storage either, as far as I know.

Yes, you can use Microsoft Office (x86-32 bit) version on it. Since it uses x86 Atom Processor, all the applications you run today on Windows 7, would run on Windows 8. I currently use Office 2010. Rakesh, Intel Corp (#IntelTablets)
