Do I get to keep microsoft word?

Question

I got a new Toshiba laptop. It has microsoft word, but is it just a trial version?

Answer 1

If you did not specifically pay for Microsoft Word then it is a trial.

Another option is to use OpenOffice (free).

OpenOffice (free)

OpenOffice is nearly identical to Microsoft Office and can import from Microsoft Office applications, and export to Microsoft Office applications unless noted below.

Base = Access
Calc = Excel
Draw = Similar to Publisher but not directly compatible
Math (Create equations) =No equivalent
Impress = PowerPoint
Writer = Microsoft Word
No equivalent = Office Outlook

Answer 2

When you open Word, does it warn you how many days left you have in some sort of a trial or does it just open normally?

My laptop came with Word as well as the rest of Microsoft Works (Encarta Encyclopedia, Streets and Trips, and others). In my case, Word was NOT just a trial version.

You probably got several of CD-ROMs along with your laptop. Does any one of them say Microsoft Word or Microsoft Office on it? If so, it's probably not a trial.

Answer 3

Your best bet is to follow the registration that it tells you. It's a LOT less than going out and paying for a copy of Office. Last I checked it's over $140 for the registration key, but that's a lot better than paying over $380 for it later.

Answer 4

Trial. Just buy a copy or steal one from somewhere.

Answer 5

No, it will expire in 90 days.

Get Open Office instead, it's free and M$-Office compatible.
