Do you need to buy software for the Lenovo IdeaPad 11 11.6-inch convertible touchscreen laptop?

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.

Well, it comes with office, many, if not most apps are free...at least the ones that I use. For surfing, browsing and watching movies or videos, I rarely touch my PC or laptop anymore. Having said that, it's not a powerhouse. I have purchased nothing for use on this tablet and would buy it again, or the new one with the atom processor ( or is it tegra 4?)

No, I purchased one earlier this year and I hate it, some of the problem is apple8 and Microsoft!

It works with the laptop. The laptop configuration determines whether it will run the software.

Not sure I understand your question. This is a customizing case for the hardware. No software comes with this purchase.

This model comes with Microsoft Office preloaded (you would need to purchase a product key to activate it). I don't believe it's a demo version, i.e. you cannot use it for a month or two. It normally requires the product key right away in order to use it. Lenovo simply preloads it for your convenience only.

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

Software is already integrated when you get it. Re: company computer, I doubt it but you should check with your company.

No, it only has an unkeyed trial version. It badly needed a new touchpad driver, but otherwise it's a great laptop.

Yes it does. You are offered to register for it (for free) when you register the product online. There is a card I believe in the package that mentions it. Sorry this is by memory and I don't have the particulars- PS. stay away from the trackpad configuration options - ends up driving you crazy

Depends what you mean by "thinkpad keyboard"... It does not have mouse functionality built in. Hope it helps.

Should be from time of purchase. You will need probably need to register the product with Lenovo on their website and you will likely enter the date of purchase at that point.

Well, I haven't used for both as yet. But I would say, take Lenovo.. that's better anytime.. Even HP is better than this laptop. I took this because it had an SD Card Slot + a DVD Player and Windows 8 and I7 Intel Processor with 8GB RAM and 1TB of Hard Drive Memory and it was cheap at Amazon for all these features. But the handling of the computer is not smooth.. Also no touch screen.. The laptop restarts every now and then....

To my knowledge, there is not. You will need to buy a product key for each. Which cost the amount of the software.

It is on the packaging that came with the ideapad. Mine came with a little cardboard type insert with the product key on it.

Hi Kayla, Part number KTL-TP3C/8G is not compatible since the Lenovo IdeaPad Yoga 11s requires low voltage memory. The compatible and recommended part number is KTL-TP3CL/8G, found here: http://www.amazon.com/Kingston-Technology-PC3-12800-KTL-TP3CL-8G/dp/B00D74FW4K/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1426085504&sr=8-1&keywords=KTL-TP3CL%2F8G Thank you for choosing Kingston as your upgrade partner! -Jewel, Kingston US Technical Support

Actually, for most people you don't need to install the software at all. On my Vista laptop I just use the OS Bluetooth options to find and sync with the mouse and I'm good to go. If you want to do non-standard button/wheel mappings you may need to install the Logitech software, but as a general rule I try to avoid software bloat whenever possible and the Logitech software is something you don't really need.
