Your comment made me sad. Do we have to preface a question with a request not to get lambasted for asking now? We all come from ignorance.

That being said, most new computers come with a 30 day trial of Office 365, which includes Word, Excel etc. It's a subscription though and you will be paying an annual fee for it. I would recommend buying a stand-alone copy of Office 2019. It's $149 direct from Microsoft and can be had for less than half that from Amazon and other vendors. Some Universities offer a copy for free as long as you're a student. Hope that helps.

Excellent review from mid-May 2021 here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UWP7K76WFeU

Summary from that video:

He didn't like the screen and the keyboard at all
Other than that, it was generally very positive, including excellent CPU performance for a laptop of this price range (even though it's Zen 2 vs Zen 3 -- see starting at the 8:00 min mark for more info)

HTH

Wait, so we're all Ryzen lemmings now?

1. Yes, the title should be changed.
2. Why is any more than 128GB necessary? I have no need. Everything I save or use is cloud based.
3. I don't use or have any need for Wi-Fi 6.

What I'm trying to express here is that you have certain criteria that are specific to you and you shouldn't judge a deal based on that. This is a good deal based on what you get for the price. HP is not for me, however, as I have only had poor experiences with their build quality.

Does anyone know if it is possible to upgrade the SSD and RAM post purchase?

I caution people to try out those keyboards in person if you can. I had silver key Inspiron and Galaxy Chromebooks this past year and I liked them. I got tired of dealing with the, for me, tough to see keys in certain light and angles.

This. I can barely see the keys. Now wish I had gotten illuminated keyboard.

Anyone has seen another version of this hp laptop? Looks like a very good deal with 32gb ram and 1tb ssd. But I'm so worry about the 41whr battery…
