hey, just bought a new ASUS and it came with Microsoft office installed. However when I open ms word it asks for a 25 digit serial key. I can cancel setup and use word but am not sure if this ability is only temporary (it says nothing about 30 days etc). Should this code be available or is it just installed to try to get my to ms site and purchase a serial code, sorry for the rambling, im bad with computers and wanted to get everything across. THANKS!!

Apparently windows 7 come with a 30-day trial version of MS office but I strongly recommend to uninstall everything office related and use openoffice instead.
It's almost identical to MS office and it's free (actually it has many more advantages but I don't think the simple user will care about them).
