Mary. I politely suggest that you should do some more research on Chromebooks before deciding to purchase one. The one word answer to your question is "no", but there are a lot of buts. Some of the buts include, "you don't need to because you can run Google docs apps." In short, there are significant differences between a windows laptop and a chromebook. Google's own site is a good place to start, along with Wikipedia or other sources. I personally love a Chromebook for many tasks, and it is a great second computer. I have a MacBook as my primary system, but a Chromebook does not replace it... yet. Mary. I politely suggest that you should do some more research on Chromebooks before deciding to purchase one.

From what I tried, no. It has google docs already installed. Anything ive done with gmail on my previous laptops had synced with this chromebook, so I found it to be pretty cool

You can use MS 365 on it, which is a web based version of office. There is a subscription fee for 365, I think it is around $6 a month for one machine.

Mine didn't come with Microsoft Office pre-installed. It wasn't important to me since I can get the software through work for fairly cheap. Thanks!

Trial version of Microsoft Office (inclusive of Microsoft Word) is loaded on. Internet performance is a bit slower than my desktop, but it is not all that bad. Has WiFi connectivity as well as you can plug a cable straight in. I use both but because of the internet performance I tend to use the hard wire when doing video calls

MS office was not loaded on. You can get it for another $99. Luckily I had access to 2010. I'm not happy with the computer since I've had it.

Actually, MS Office is installed but after a short trial period you will have to buy it.

NO. My unit came loaded with Window's Seven, but no Microsoft Office. This you can easily add from their web site, or pick it up at Best Buy. I was kind of thinking it would have come with Windows Seven, but I was wrong. Still an excellent value, without switching to the new Microsoft software platform.

No, this does not have office pre-installed. It has the option for Google Docs, a free alternative and office can be purchased.

Nope. No Microsoft Office. Mine came with Windows 8, a trial of Mcaffee Antivirus, and that was about it.

No. The Microsoft Office is not actually pre-installed in this laptop. There is just an icon link (an installer downloader) to download and install Microsoft Office 365 (2013) as a 30 day trial or as a paid subscription. You can still buy MS Office that will work on only one computer (one license copy) and install it in your laptop. You can also install and use LibreOffice suite for free. As well as Google Drive has word processor (Google Docs) and spreadsheet (Google Sheets) web apps that you can use for free as well.

It has a link installed but you have to buy it before you can really use it at all. So no, it is does not include Microsoft Office

No, you cannot not. Apple and Windows run on two different operating systems. Microsoft Office is incompatible with all Apple products. With that said, there are plenty of apps that can import Window Office documents and you can work on them, but it is not officially a Microsoft Office app.

Yes it has Microsoft Office Starter installed prior to purchase. To start it up, just click the start orb, search for Microsoft Word, and click on the icon for Microsoft Word Starter and it will do the rest of the work for you.

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)

Yes, it supports Microsoft Office, but there is no CD/DVD drive. You would need an external DVD

you can download an app called Google Docs which seems to work like word, but it will not allow you to run Microsoft products such as office
