Does Office come pre-loaded? Hi, Does the HP Pavilion DV6-2162NR 15.6-Inch Black Laptop come pre-loaded with Office?

Yes, and yes. It comes with the 60 day trial version, you need to buy the full version if you want it. Or just get the Document readers from M$, and save your money. Download Windows Live Email, it will give an address book, and email and a calendar (all you really need.) I wouldn't even install the trial version.

No. Office was not installed. Costco sold this unit with Office installed but no longer sells this model. I had to buy the Office suite software and install it myself. No big deal.

Yes it does, but there are just trial versions. I don't remember very well, but I think Office was a 2-month trial. No other programs for anything, just some Asus stuff that I never used. And the annoying Win 8 (several things were improved when updated to Win 8.1). Even though, it's a really good laptop, I'm more than happy with it.

No, it doesn't. It has the Microsoft Office App preloaded, but you have to activate or purchase your own.

Hi Patrick, only the bare bones software came on mine. I had to install MS Office and anything else I needed. One point to consider. These are not high end smoking fast laptops and mine had minimal amount of RAM when I bought it. I went to Best Buy and purchased replacement sticks and upped the RAM to 4GB (from the 1GB it came with).

No. It comes with a default mail prog that uses your Microsoft sign-in. I had to purchase Office 13 separately. It's pretty stripped down as far as business applications go, however, it does come pre-loaded with "practical programs" like Skype, Ebay, AccuWeather and such. I haven't used a single one.

No, this computer doesn't come included with Microsoft Office. But you can download several free variations or buy and install office

you are correct it does not come pre-installed. you can go online and get 30day trial if you need to know which office suite is right for you.

No it comes pre-loaded with none of that. You can sign up for a free trial otherwise you have to buy it separately, like most Windows computers nowadays.

It does not come with Microsoft Office. This would need to be purchased separately. It does come with the basic Microsoft Works and lots of "free" software from HP. Microsoft Office traditionally does not come with a new pc or laptop.

No, it does not necessarily come with Office installed. I see the other two answers, but Office was not installed on the two I bought, you have to buy the office product once the trial expires. It comes with a link that allows you to download a trial or buy the product. Office 2013, which you'll need for Windows 8, is a bit pricey at $139 for a single user. Unless you need to interact with other Office users in professional relationships I'd try OpenOffice to see if you can get by before buying the Microsoft product. OpenOffice is free, it's not Microsoft Office, but it's free, it's not perfect, but it's not junk. By the way, the Lenovo 36795MU is great, perfect for tossing in the bag and using on the commute.

No, these typically don't come with new PC's, much less refurbished ones. Microsoft Office will likely cost you more than this PC itself. There are free alternatives available to download online that work just fine though.

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.

Mine came with 8.1 pre-installed. There was minimal updating required. I believe this is because 8.1 has been out for a while now (long enough for HP to update its pre-installed software).

The HP Consumer Refurbished Pavilion m6-1045dx I purchased 11 months ago did not have MS Office installed. But that being said, the laptop is fantastic, very light in weight and the backlit keyboard is very helpful. In my opinion, the laptop is a good value.

No. Chromebook comes with Google Chrome browser pre-installed. The unit goes directly into Chrome once powered on. There is NO MS-Windows, hence no MS-Office.

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.
