I do not think that this comes with Microsoft Office, and it does not have a backlit keyboard. As for World of Warcraft, I'd recommend going to their website and looking for a minimum hardware requirement to determine whether or not this laptop will handle it adequately. My guess however, is not. This laptop works well for office use, and music/movie/tv use, but it is not built for gaming.

You have to buy it - this computer does not come with MS Office. (a HUGE bummer...I realized this and was very disappointing myself....not only do you have to deal with annoying Windows 8, but you don't even have basic Word or Excel.)

It's fine. However, keep in mind that the $399 price does not include the Microsoft office software; I happened to have the Microsoft 2007 version already and it works just fine; also note that windows 8 is different until you figure out how to get to the Desktop feature which is more like what I was used to. I have no complaint about mine otherwise. I bought Windows 8 for Dummies and it has been a great help

Really I dont remember that version had because sold. But really the office version was very good. Your OS is Windows Phone of Microsoft. Im sure that will serve you.

Hi, this model doesn't come with a backlit keyboard. For MSI gaming laptop with backlit KB, the CPU must be i7 and the GPU must be NVidia 760/765/770/780.

it has Microsoft office installed but when you open it, it requires you to purchase it or put in your old serial number from a previous office that you have bought, so really the answer is NO!!! Most distressing!!!It has some other programs like word pad and notebook but anything else you would have to install yourself.

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.

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.

Correction, no it does not have office. I was thinkin the windows version. It is not a bad little laptop. More issues with battery life than anything else, it can always be modified with software, battery life is something else.

Nope not mine came with xp office. I have had no problems with it, but I'm not a big game fan. The memory capacity is the thing.

I game and stream all the time on it! It does not come with Microsoft office, but you can always just download open office for free.

Hi Eric, Thanks for your interest! Unfortunately, this model doesn't have a backlit keyboard.

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.

It depends on what you are using it for. I for gaming I would have to say no. Programming possibly. Check with you application's system requirements first. For basic MS office yes but it is slow. Surfing the Web is slow too. This was my solution to a more expensive tablet because of it's small size. I also have two much faster computers.

Hi Wendy. No back lit keyboard and yes, Windows 7. That's one of the main reasons I purchased it. Great machine. If you buy it, make sure you purchase a Logitech wireless mouse and disable the ACER touch pad using Fn and F7 simultaneously. That touch pad is so sensitive it will drive you nuts.
