The first computers pre-loaded with Microsoft's Office 2000 have begun shipping for those champing at the bit to be the first on their block with a copy of the software suite.

Major PC manufacturers such as Compaq Computer, Dell Computer, Gateway and Micron today began shipping computers with Office 2000 pre-loaded, although retail stores will not offer shrink-wrapped versions of the software until June 10, Microsoft confirmed.

Buyers of new PCs will thus have access to the newest Microsoft software before it is widely available at retail, a Microsoft spokesperson said.
