A:AnswerHopefully you realize it already is. It started being available first week in November 2016. Purchased mine on the 11-11-16 and there were already 5 sold at various stores. Most stores don't stock them but shipping is free and actually came faster to my house then it would the store.
A:AnswerIt's already available just call your best buy store and check if they have it in stock. I purchased mine on 11/03/16 in Las Vegas. They had only one in stock.
A:AnswerIt has a weak dual-core (2 cores + 2 hyperthread) processor.
A few years ago, this would have been labelled a Core i5 processor until Intel started labeling dual core CPUs as Core i7 processors to boost sales.
A:AnswerIt does not come installed. By default Best Buy sells this computer with a one-year subscription to Microsoft Office (you can buy it without and save about $50). When you start it up and enter the subscription code Word (and the rest of Office) will be installed from the internet. You do need to maintain the subscription if you want to keep using Word after the year is up.
