I thinking about purchasing a MacBook Pro for school, and I was wondering if I had to buy word, powerpoint, excel, ect. or if it came with it. If word doesn't come with it, is there an apple one that does come with it, like word, but apples software? If it doesn't come with it I really dont understand why I would buy a mac.
MacBook
Welcome to Apple Support Communities
Macs don't come with that type of apps, so you have to purchase them. There are three options, but there are more if you want to have a look at these applications:
- Office for Mac > http://www.microsoft.com/mac
- Apple iWork, in the Mac App Store.
- LibreOffice > http://www.libreoffice.org
All of them are paid apps except LibreOffice, so you can start testing this application. Macs come with TextEdit, a basic text application that won't meet the requirements you want

You have to buy the MS Office suite to get those programs. Apple does have education pricing on the MS Office that is a good price reduction.
Do MacBook Pros come with word,excel, powerpoint, ect? Or do I have to buy that separate?
