Depends. Depends on when you bought your computer and whether it was a
consumer or professional model. Oftentimes the pro models didn't
include it (if you're going to drop the cash on a pro model you're
also likely to need professional quality & industry-standard
software... or, you're going to be a "Mac expert" anyway, in which
case you're probably familiar with MS Office (since MS Office started
on Mac and was (& unfortunately is), for the longest time, the
undisputed office suite)).

An easy way to find out if you have it is to look through your
install/recovery CDs. The iMac series (and probably iBook as well)
should have some variant of AW on at least one of the CDs. If you
don't have AW, chances are you can pick up a copy of the app for less
than new price on eBay.

PS If you have Office, why are you intested in AW -- Office is
generally a more capable office suite than AW (especially if you're
used to Office's preferences/behaviour). [I'm sure this paragraph will
get a rise out of AW defenders ;-)]
