Intel Compute Stick With Microsoft Office

It is a portable compute - you need it!

Microsoft's PC Health Check informed me that my 6-year old PC with an Intel I7 was not able to upgrade to Windows 11 for a number of hardware related reasons. I look at similarly configured PCs as to what I had and a new system would run well over $2K. I bought this bundle, 32GB of memory and a 1TB NVME SSD for about $750. Everything was very simple to install, and if you have any questions, there are loads of Youtube videos showing how to install this combo. The motherboard recognized the CPU without needing to flash the BIOS and in less than an hour I pretty much had a brand new system, much faster than my old one, for 1/3 the price. Total score. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend this bundle.

First and foremost, this is the first stick I've had since the Microsoft sidewinder pro and in the well over decade I used it, it never failed me. Fast forward 10 years and getting back into space/flight sims and the t16000m hotas is great. In the 3 or 4 weeks I've had with it, I've yet to run into any issues and seems to be built well enough to handle years of abuse. There are tons of buttons, most of which are extremely easy to get to in an instant. I wish there were more buttons on the stick but that's the only complaint I've had so far. That being said, the throttle has a ton of buttons too, all of which are easily accessible without moving off of it. All in all, it's a great hotas with a solid build, plenty of features and a great price.

Added this 8Gb stick to my new Dell 3671 I5 intel 2666 desktop. No problems or conflicts. Went from 1 stick dell 8mb to 2 sticks that are compatible. Now I have 16GB 's of Ram and a smile on my face!

The battery drains faster when watching movies, but it still lasts several hours. I used it for Microsoft Office, Python programing and surfing -- it worked smoothly for all my needs.

Microsoft Office was easy to install and is the foundation of much of the work that I do. Having access to the software on my home computer during COVID-19 has been a real asset.

I bought my laptop with B&H and Microsoft Office 365 pop-up with a discount and I didn't hesitate to add it to my cart.

I used it to build a desktop that is mainly used for browsing and Microsoft Office, Adobe, etc. It is fast and lets me multi-task with ease. It is also supported for Windows 11 which is great.

This is a great product. I'm using it in my office to connect my new work monitors to the Microsoft Dock. Will definitely purchase if needed in the future.

SoftMaker Office seems to be a straightforward non-subscription and cheaper replacement to Microsoft Office. Needed a decent program suite to edit and save all my Microsoft Docs (Word and Excel). I know there are free open source alternatives, but I was more comfortable working in SoftMaker vs them. It is working well so far and is very familiar to use coming from Microsoft Office. SoftMaker Office doesn’t have has robust review tools built in as Microsoft Office does. However, it didn’t seem like the extra grammar review alone was worth the additional money for the full non-subscription desktop Microsoft Office purchase to me.
