Hewlett Packard computer's software package

Is the 'Microsoft word document processor' sold separately in a Hewlett Packard computer's software package?
This computer has trapped my documents and an upgrade demands $140 +/- to access them. Is there a costless solution to this or do I have to find another manufacturer that sells their computer with microsoft basic word processor that will not cost extra after the initial purchase? I need my resumes freed.

If you have .doc files then you will need a program that can open these type of files. While 90% of the world seems to use Microsoft Word, there are other programs that can open Word documents. There is a free word processing software called Open Office that will open Word documents: http://www.openoffice.org/ If you really dont want to shell out the extra money for getting a copy of Word then its your best bet.

Kramer has both of them in his fund and they're both doing okay.

What is Hewlett Packard? McDonald's food tastes yummy...but is really bad for you. I heard they got caught using sick cow meat for the hamburgers or something... :P
2 :
They are both stable companies. For someone seeking stability before gain, they should be safer then US bonds. It is very risky to invest in US dollars. I donĂ‚´t have anything about US companies, but with the dollar devaluation that keeps on, the profits made on stock might be outweighted by the loss of the dollars. Its nice to make a profit on your investment, but does it mean so much when your purchasing power in that currency goes down and down ?

Cramer is more of a showman then stock expert. He choose MCD and HP because they are both components of the DJIA. So barring anything tragic or illegal, they will go up or down with the DOW. I don't follow either, so I can't give even an educated guess as to what they will do, other than the rise and fall of the DOW. I will say I am an ex chef and I have never and will never own a restaurant stock. There is as much risk in the stock as owning the restaurant,. Not even the good ones like, Chipotle Mexican Grill ... CMG One cow with mad cow disease or ecoli (sp?) can kill the whole chain. MCD could probably survive because it is so large.

Nothing. Why would you pay money for such an obsolete piece of junk anyway?
2 :
Research completed listings in eBay to see what previous ones have sold for. If you cant find any try checking the search title and description box or try revising you search.
3 :
I've been told that old stuff like that is not worth much. Also been told you get the higest price if you give it to Goodwill or some place like that as a tax write off. Or you could try E-Bay. Good luck my dear.

If you press the setup button ( i think it is f12) when the HP icon page is there during the startup. you should be able to do a system restore without the disks. It will use the data that is on the other partition to do the reformat. Just read the screen when the HP icon is up and it will say click a key to enter recovery console
2 :
contact HP, and hope they still offer those restore disks from that far back. Otherwise you will need a ful version windows operating system in order to start with a new operating system. Good thing is i believe Windows has abandoned all support for Windows 98, and it might mean you could get it somewhere and it might not be considered piracy. unsure on that, up to you to investigate. Only for Windows 98, and earlier though Would not advise that for Windows XP
