is this a disk (not used with the internet) or a web based program (internet required to use)?

This program comes on a disk and so you don't have to have the internet to load it onto your computer. It will work just like it is. However be forewarned, many of the great features on this program such as email integration,credit card acceptance,and online banking, do require the internet to work. Also software updates,tax updates, are usually done over the internet.

No sure yet. Can you buy your programs on the internet and download? Otherwise you have to buy the $80, external hard drive. Good luck.

What type of programs?If you have content on a flash drive or external drive then definitely yes. If it is a program downloaded from the internet or bought from the microsoft app store then definitely yes. However, if you are wondering about CDs or DVDs, then you will need to find an external disc drive in order to load them onto the computer. Hope this helps!

No and it is not good on the Internet. You can use a USB had or thumb drive but t It doesn't do much else.

it is not on this laptop....neither is there a CD drive...I am totally unhappy with this laptop, and the vendor I bought it from. I would advise to stay away from both.

No, it is a bare drive. I used a usb2IDE appliance and Clonezilla, a free OpenSource download.

DVD drive is not included. You will need to purchase an external DVD drive if you need one.

you have both options. Mine came with a CD. Downloading online will give you the most up to date software.

You can download it directly from their website using the Code/Key provided on the program's box that you purchase. Although I have a CD-rom on my laptop, the disk wouldn't load, so I had to download it from their website which proved successful.

In addition to the installation software, there is some CyberLink software (Power2Go, PowerBackup, LabelPrint, YouCam, PowerDVD Downloader), a 60 day trial of Norton Internet Security, and a user manual for the drive included. I didn't (and usually don't) use any of the included software with this sort of device except what is necessary for installation and use. The installation software is intended for a Windows computer.

I used it without the cd, but in some cases you might need it. I downloaded the software for it but never really used it.

No it doesnt. Its more in the form of a netbook... Who needs CD/DVDs anymore?

It is a network attached storage. You don't need a pc to use it, but you might need a pc or a mac to set it up.

Neither, its an ultrabook. It is very thin and portable, so no CD, DVD, or Blu-ray drive. Windows 8 however comes with its own disc mounter, so if you have iso images of discs you can still run them.

Recovery media on a disc is not included. Webcam is included and installed.

I don't know exactly what you mean, Its a software, so it doesn't require an internet connection. You just install it to your pc.

I ordered it so I would have the disk. I think you can purchase the download from the web if you do not want to have the disk.
