Why would you expect it to be?
The software that comes "bundled" on a new PC is whatever the seller of the PC
chooses to include. Many PC vendors will include software to sweeten the
package, but there is nothing unusual about Office _not_ being included.
It's a fairly expensive piece of software so I would imagine that those trying
to compete at the lower end of the price spectrum would not include it. Even my
last new Dell only came with Works, not Office.
