Question 1

Can you please name the exact installed software this computer comes with. I see windows office, so excel and word is already installed or are you going to send me a CD separately?

Accepted Answer

Good question!  After some research here is what I found:

As part of the Microsoft Office Home and Student Suite, Microsoft Office IS pre-installed which includes Word, Excel, PowerPoint and OneNote.  If you contact Microsoft directly and give the representative your Product Identification number (PID) for Microsoft products or Product Key ID number after purchasing your Flex 10, they should be able to verify over the phone whether or not you have the full version of the Microsoft Office Home and Student Suite for this device.

For additional information I would suggest contacting a Lenovo Support Specialist (I got disconnected twice before getting an answer from Lenovo).

Keep in mind the Lenovo Flex 10 is NOT "officially" sold here in the US via Lenovo directly at this time, although it is being sold by NewEgg and other major US retailers.  Information from Lenovo directly is somewhat vague on this particular US version being sold by NewEgg.

Personally I have not yet "fired up" my unit to give you a 
definitive answer.

NewEgg will not permit me to include contact information for Lenovo and Microsoft in my posts, including any phone numbers.  Sorry.  :(

Hope this helps!

Question 2

Is anyone having issues with this computer? Mine are mainly that the touchscreen stops working after 15-20 minutes of use; system is very slow, and the apps are terrible. When I click on links within Facebook groups, the links won't open. Any info or solutions would be very appreciated.

Accepted Answer

My wife has this problem with hers.  Apparently the touchscreen "falls asleep" after a certain period of time due to the way the power management settings in an attempt to extend battery life.  As far as being slow, swap the stock antivirus for AVG and you will free up some resources and get ccleaner and use it often.  I would suggest Chrome as a browser to help with the links.  The little I have used it, I think the apparent slowness relates to it being 32 bit.

Question 3

Does Lenovo Flex 10 support stylus? If so, what are the compatibles?

Accepted Answer

New Egg asked me to answer the question as I purchased the Lenovo Flex 10 in April.   I don't use a stylus with the device -- just my fingers, which worked until I did a Windows 8.1 Service Pack about a couple of weeks ago.  The Service Pack broke the touchscreen interface ("thank you Microsoft").  I rolled back the Service Pack and everything worked again.   Just now, to answer your question, I attempted to use a stylus on the device -- didn't work.  So, based upon my one attempt, I would say I wouldn't count on the Flex 10 supporting a stylus.    I have noticed in blogs that others have complained about the touchscreen interface being sketchy.   My experience is that it works fine, except for that one time when applying the service pack from Microsoft.    The other problem is Windows 8.1 -- which stinks, but that's the way of things.

Question 4

Is 2 gig the maximum memory I can have on this device?

Accepted Answer

Yeah.  It's sealed.  If you are doing something that requires any more RAM I would seriously consider a different computer.  It has marginally more function than a tablet.

Question 5

does it include battery? if yes, please describe. Thanks

Accepted Answer

Not sure whether I replied before. Yes, it comes with battery. Not sure what you mean by describe. The battery is like any computer battery and I believe it lasts about 3 hours during use. If you put the computer to sleep, it lasts very long. I just started using it, so I can't say much right now. Windows 8 is a bit difficult to get used to, but we have no choice as Windows eventually will stop supporting older versions.

Question 6

does this include MS Office trail or permanent version?

Accepted Answer

"Permanent" version.  It comes with a short cut to Microsoft Office 2013.  You need to enter a 25 character activation key in small font (which is found with the owner's manual).  Once entered, it will download and install the permanent Microsoft Office 2013, reboot the computer, and eventually you will be ready to go.   Obviously, as there is no wired LAN, you need wireless broadband internet during this time.  Also, since there is no external media provided, should the computer's hard disk crash, and you need to re-install...good luck with that.  Better make your own backup just in case
