A:AnswerGood question. The laptop comes with a 30-day trial of Microsoft Office which includes Microsoft Word for documents. Once the trial runs out, you have to renew it and pay $69.99 a year or you can get the permanent version of Microsoft Office. There are a couple different versions that stay on the computer permanent, like the Home & Student version or Home & Business version. The prices on those are different. You can also use Google like you've mentioned. Google Docs is free.
I hope this helps.
A:AnswerBetter than average, but they speakers are still laptop speakers. They are definitely way better than my last laptop. It really depends on how noisy an environment you will be movie watching in. I doubt you'll need external speakers though unless there is alot of ambient background noise.

A:AnswerThe only real difference is the A8 has alittle more speed. I heard someone say A6 is like a 6cyl car and A8 would A 8cyl. A6 will do most things but needs more ram then 4-8gb 8 is ok 16 is better depending on what you want to do with it.
A:AnswerI think this is a good computer for a beginner for the price, and there's plenty of storage (4GB Memory - 500GB Hard Drive). It has a built-in camera if you're on Facebook. Just keep in mind that Windows 10 is pre-loaded, and Windows 10 is a bit different from previous versions of Windows.
