Is a lappop with Microsoft Windows 8.1. You can install app for the new Microsoft start button or normal application for desktop.

I really can't help much, I bought the tablet for my husband. Since I have an iPad he wanted to try something different. He hates it. Can't get comfortable with the operating system.

I have used it on my phone, iPad, IBM thinkpad all without problems, can't say all computers as I only used this while traveling so only have tried on my thinkpad x220 using windows 7 all without problems,

Yes. I don't know whether or not there is a Windows app for it, but it does work in Windows.

No, it uses Windows and you would have to use the Windows store instead. Most all apps are on the Windows store, but you will find many apps to not be the same or even cost money.

In theory, it exists. Still can't find it. Customer non-service has yet to reply to my request for their Windows app. It' s not on Google Play, iTunes, or their website. The website listed in the manual including the IP Address does not exist - and I've tried it from four different networks to be sure I was not imagining things. The Apple and Droid platforms do nothing on my Win7 laptop. The fact it was not hard-loaded onto the drive from the factory is also a bad sign. Most companies do that as a backup measure to get you going.

I'm afraid it doesn't, at least not on mine. I run windows 8 on a Gigabyte notebook, and it keeps disconnecting. I've contacted the support desk and the say they can't help me, I've got to take it up with my laptop manufacturer. I have zero confidence that I will be able to fix this. The jawbone forum is full of similar complaints.

The short answer is, SOMETIMES. It's a very touchy program with Windows 8. Very frustrating when it doesn't always work properly. I often regret having wasted my money on it.

Ok thank you! Very helpful. It's not that I "must" have ms office it's that I want my teen to be able to create her resume on it in a format that is accepted/viewable by the employers that she submits it to. Not sure if those Android apps work well for this type of thing?

We never use it but I believe it can run MS Office files through Microsoft Office Mobile free app. You just need to download it since it doesn't come with that app.

Either, depending on the OS. It works equally awful if you use MS Office. Use Open Office and it actually runs well.

None what so ever. You can format it to work for iOS or Windows. Many videos online that taught me to switch it to iOS compatability. I believe it came to me formatted for Windows. If not...an easy reformatting switch.

No is the simple answer. The software is all windows based. And is the weakest link of the device.

Windows 8, no microsoft or anything. There's a variety of Windows 8 "apps": Netflix, Internet Explorer, an amazon app, a few acer-related things, apps to email, photos, weather, news, icookbook, kindle, social jogger, skype...a few other things. If you haven't used Windows 8, if you install something like iTunes, it creates an "app" shortcut type thing in the swipe view. I've installed a few other things like Google Chrome, iTunes, Fotoroom, etc... If you're looking for a freeware/shareware document/excel/visio-ish experience without having to install/buy Microsoft Office, I'd suggest OpenOffice.

Sry took so long to reply. You can download two applications that will be of great use to you, Polaris and Office Suite.

while I don't own this specific model, as far as I can tell it all depends on the programs you own, i myself use Microsoft One Note which works flawlessly with the tablet. The major issue with getting this computer is if you have an actual use for the touch screen. I'm learning a new language and the writing is simplified with the use of a tablet, It makes learning the new language several times easier. a) On the touch screens I've used, No you don't need alot of pressure. b) With good programs you can leave the handwriting as your own and read it digitally. Otherwise, It is a software limitation to recognize your handwriting and convert it into printed font. c) Again, Software issue, With One Note it is as simple as selecting the eraser and erasing. d) Well, its quite different, the feel is different on its on, you don't have the adhesion you want, and in certain cases, if you have "lag" your writing comes up after you actually passed the area (a slight delay when the writing actually shows up.) Well it is a lot easier to erase, and you dont have any eraser left overs after erasing. Hope it helps "Bones"

There are free apple apps that do relatively the same thing as office apps - in a slightly different format. Overall they're fairly effecient and can be transferred to microsoft prograns relatively seamlessly from my experience. Not sure about logmein though.
