MS Office query, how can I get it out of a loop?

[Windows Central Question]

MS Ofice query

pls provide pre-installed full version MS Office with Windows which is more useful to every individual than Travel, Food & Drink and lot other unnecessary stuffs. it is irritating to "buy" MS Office separately. whoever purchases a computer will definitely use word/spreadsheet/ppt. so why not provide it built in?

Re: MS Ofice query

1. This is a private blog/site, not Microsoft

2. Microsoft is a business that sells products. Yes, Office is a useful product, one that makes Microsoft a lot of money presumably.

3. If you want free versions of Office products you can use Office Online for free at office.com or through your outlook.com account.

1. If we provided you with Office on here then that would be piracy, the less said about that the better.

2. Who are you to tell me what's useful to me, I happen to find those "unnecessary stuffs" to be quite useful so don't make the assumption that something that is unnecessary for you is to everyone else as well.

3. You want Office, you purchase it. Plain and simple. With an Office 365 Personal subscription, here in the UK at least, being ?5.99 a month that's peanuts compared to paying for a full version off the shelf. Providing it with the PC would just bump up the price as the end user would have to cover the cost of both Windows and Office licences.

FYI, if we're taking Windows 10 here, there are free MS Office apps in the store. Word, Excel, PowerPoint, etc
