Venue 8 Pro Windows 8.1

Just got the tablet today and so far really like it.The only 2 things so far is 1, pretty light on instructions and 2, When I ordered it it says it comes with Office Home and Student 2013 tablet already on the tablet. The only Office program I can find and click on it, it ask me to buy it or try it and it's not the office program it should be. Am I missing something or did I read wrong when I ordered the tablet? Oh and one other concern is it says it should be a 32 Gig when in fact the tablet says it only has 22.6??

    Thank you very much PNC. At first glance I thought the Microsoft insert was for Windows 8.1, looking at it closer your are right, it's the key code for Office.

    Thanks again

    I think you will get the office 2013 H&S along with the tablet, If you look into the box which you got along with the tablet should have the product key(MPI card), In most cases Dell V8P will ship with office 2013 if its a refurbished device you will not get the product key(I'm not sure), better have a word with Tech support or customer service to check for the alternate options.

    The 22.6 GB is probably the free space.  The OS and backup partition take up some of that 32 GB.

    Thanks Jeff. I thought the same thing at first, but it says 10.3 GB available of 22.6 GB. I may be reading something different than what it actually means, but that is what it says in disk space info. I know that hard drives may say 500GB when in fact you only really get, say 470GB, but percentage wise from 32GB to 22.6 GB is a lot. It's not a big deal because the way I will be using it, it's probably more than enough.
