carry on then posted:it was probably free on whatever oem pcs people bought, i think they couldn't give works away fast enough during the XP era in the 90’s Microsoft made it a requirement that computers with windows include an office suite (which the oems would have to pay for, obviously). MSOffice was very expensive and most consumer PCs couldn’t price that in, so oems chose cheaper options. one was WordPerfect. another was Works, which was Microsoft’s second, cheaper office suite. yes, they had two office suites.
