Hi,

Office does not come with any version of Windows, though manufacturers
frequently bundle them together on preinstalled machines.

If you purchased a new computer then there is a good chance that there is
Office on it and yes it is probably a trial version and will run out in 90
days, it is probably Office 2003

Where did you get this misinformation from?

I think maybe you should do some investigating.
A friend ordered a custom built Compaq and it come with a 3 month trial
version of Office 2003
I searched the website couldn't find it anywhere so I guess you can call
1-888-999-4747
and ask or if you are content with not knowing that is fine also.

I've seen the trial versions of Office programs being offered on OEM
systems as well. Must be something new as I've not seen this in the past -
pre-Office11. If I remember correctly, the Dell configuration pages show
that description for some of their software packs.

Neither the Microsoft Office application suite, nor any of its
individual component applications (Word, Excel, PowerPoint, Access,
Outlook, etc.), have _ever_ been "part" of *any* Windows operating
system. They are, and always have been, separate applications, that
must be purchased and installed separately.

That is a good point, but the price was right, a lot cheaper then I could
build one like it.
The main problem with the new factory built puters are they have so much
trash in the OEM software.
It seems to being a good job, runs great maybe things are better.
I think we will probably end up doing a clean install with a retail version.
It seems as all the programs are intangled together you stop some junk from
running and it seems to end up stopping something else from running that you
want.
