I don't know about the Acer Aspire in particular, but in general factory computers will come with notepad or something, but not something complete like MS Word. Download OpenOffice for free - it's a shareware version of MS Office made by Mozilla, the Firefox people, and will give you 99% of the same features and is compatible with MS Office file types.

It doesn't come with Microsoft Office; you'll have to install on your own. There are some Asus software, notable is the connected standby software which let's you configure how power is conserved. But, hey, this is so high performing that you could even install Adobe PhotoShop or Adobe Premiere and this will handle that fine.

If software as in Microsoft Word ? No it does not come with extra software programs.

Yes, it includes the MS offices with word, excel, powerpoint, onenote, and outlook. BTW, check out the new 8 inch tablet which deserves yournattention on both price and spec. It uses the 4th gen Atom processor with full windows 8.1 and office (home+student). That is a great deal.

Yes. Acer Iconia W510-1422 runs under Windows 8 and you can use a version of Microsoft Office, which inludes Word and Excel.

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.

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).

Yes, just make sure you have access to Microsoft Word. My Asus did not come with it preinstalled.

Yes, it runs just like a laptop or desktop so you can install MS Office but only by a download, i would recommend getting the Bluetooth keyboard if you plan on doing a lot of word processing.

No .it does not . It has a pretty good wordpad . Word cost $140. This computer is pretty much useless. Any Notebok or laptop today is a much better choice

Yes. Has nothing to do with Acer. MS has announced free upgrade for all Win 8 to 8.1.

not quite sure what you mean. To me the Acer Aspire has a normal keyboard. It actually is very easy to use and I love the lighted feature. It is a lot better than my old Toshiba keyboard. I can use a very light touch.

The Acer Aspire R7 comes with Dragon Assistant which I have used on other computers and it is fairly accurate and makes things a lot easier. You can learn more about it here: http://www.nuance.com/dragon/dragon-assistant/index.htm

My wife and I were mostly interested in purchasing a light, portable unit on which we could do word processing and which came with the MS Word already installed. (We weren't really interested in other forms of software purchase in this case.) The Lenovo is one of the very few laptops of its kind that does have the WORD pre-installed without further purchase, so as we've begun using it, the unit does satisfy our needs quite well in this regard.

It does not, nor does it include any Microsoft Office programs, those do need to be added by the user. It will come with WordPad for basic word-processing use.

Word is the Microsoft Office word processing program. WordPerfect is the Corel word processing program. In order to get Word, you will need to purchase Microsoft Office.

No, but it has the OpenOffice installed, which includes programs similar to the Microsoft Office suite such as word processor, spreadsheet, database manager, and for presentations and slideshows. Although these programs are of a different format, they are easy to use if you would care to explore them.
