Does Surface Book come with Microsoft Office?

[WPCentral Question]

Just wondering if the new Microsoft Surface Book comes with Microsoft Office installed (Outlook, Word, Excel etc.) Or does this need to be purchased separately? Thanks!

This has not been definitely clarified to my knowledge. If it comes installed, then more than likely it will be a trial version, which is only my best guess. If Microsoft doesn't explicitly advertise that it comes with Office, then it does not.
