Does the G585 come loaded with Microsoft Word, Excel, Outlook, or any sort of productivity software?

I would assume that it comes with Microsoft Works as it is the non-business product suite.

I am not sure as to the year. However the one I bought (and am still using) had Microsoft Office preloaded).

It comes loaded with Notepad and Wordpad as part of Windows 7, but they're pretty basic. I downloaded the Libre Office suite, which is FREE, and has a very capable word processor (and spreadsheet, data base, drawing program and more).

Mine didn't come with Microsoft Office pre-installed. It wasn't important to me since I can get the software through work for fairly cheap. Thanks!

The one I bought did not, but it was a used one. However, on HP's specs page for this laptop, under Productivity Tools it says: "Microsoft Office 2010: Buy Microsoft Office to activate Office software on this PC." That may mean that on a brand new laptop, there's a trial, and you would have to buy the software to keep using it.

i think it came with 60 day trial of microsoft office which includes word/excel/power point and more. i already have office 2010 3 user so i didnt use the trial version.

It comes loaded with Office 360. My kid is already learning spreadsheet formulas.

no unless the product description indicates it's installed. I found an alternative to MS office with a search for "free MS Office download"

I actually just purchased office. When I purchased the laptop it didn't come with office. The little I've used Word and Excel has been good. It didn't slow the computer down at all.

It has a link installed but you have to buy it before you can really use it at all. So no, it is does not include Microsoft Office

It does have Microsoft Office365 with Word, Powepoint, etc but it's a trial version. You have to buy the full version or download it for free somewhere else.

Yes, it comes with a trial version of Microsoft Office, which you can purchase if you like it. You might also look into OpenOffice...

Microsoft Office is not included. I found it on Ebay as a download for $45.00. It works fine.

No it does not. The last version of office that included it, that I am aware of, is 2000. And then it was only included in the Premium and Developer editions.

Hello, it is a Windows 8 machine. It doesn't come with any premium software loaded, although Windows 8 has a number of relatively simple apps built in. Consider LibreOffice, OpenOffice, and Google Docs as excellent free software add-ons. I think the machine is a great buy at the Amazon price that is being posted right now.

Yes it does, but there are just trial versions. I don't remember very well, but I think Office was a 2-month trial. No other programs for anything, just some Asus stuff that I never used. And the annoying Win 8 (several things were improved when updated to Win 8.1). Even though, it's a really good laptop, I'm more than happy with it.
