It comes with a tablet version of Windows, Windows RT 8.1, and acts like a lighter version of Windows 8.

It has Windows 8 included. It's not the latest version of windows 8, but you can upgrade for free off Microsoft's website if you want to.

Mine originally came with Windows 8 which I upgraded to Windows 8.1 which is a free upgrade on the Microsoft Store for all Windows 8 device owners.

Yes. It comes with Windows 8. One of the first things you will want to do is to update it 8.1 which is done in the Windows store after an initial update.

It comes with windows. You will need to purchase, as I did, Microsoft office. The laptop also came with anti-virus software.

no, if you buy from usedhardware, it comes with a dell disk you boot up and it installs windows 7. For $90 its a great deal.

Yes it does. I installed windows 7 on the one I ordered using the USB port. But when I received mine it had a bad battery. I had to keep it on the charger 24/7. Hope this help!

Pretty sure shipped unit will come with windows 7 unless the seller installed windows 8 themselves onto the machine for you.

Probably not since the description does not include Windows 8, but then windows 8 didn't exist when this device came on the market. It is a plug-n-play device, so you could always try it.

No, I hooked a Media link up to it. It comes with windows 7 home premium operating system. Its basically plug in and start running. everything else you have to add. You can get on the internet with windows 7 and then down load what you need or buy it on cd to down load. lots of usbs. It is fully operational out of the box. Came with mouse and keyboard. Its very fast compared to the old xp I was using that burnt out. Im very pleased with it. Especially for less than $100 delivered. It also was shipped very fast.

Hi Wade, the system comes with the Windows disk for complete re-install if needed, otherwise Windows does have backup and recovery built in.

Yes it does but you have to download the drivers online. I remember the cd it comes with is only of Windows.

Mine came with Windows 8 pre-loaded. My wife has had a tough time getting used to 8 but it's not too bad.

The device does not include pc software. Purchasable software does exist to work with the device on windows 7.

It came with Win 7 installed, which is what I wanted. An IT friend suggested it. Doesn't think Windows 8 and the touchy-feely screen is quite ready for prime time.
