I was wondering if anyone has powerpoint on their computer and could send me it or know of a way where I could download it onto this computer easily. I have Microsoft Works and apparently that doesn't include powerpoint. If anyone could help I'd be quite grateful. thanks

do you need it just to VIEW a powerpoint? if so, you can download Microsoft's Free Powerpoint View here, otherwise, you'll need to purhcase it.

you can download the Powerpoint viewer here: http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/d...displaylang=en

however if you need to create or edit Powerpoint documents you can download OpenOffice.org for FREE here: http://download.openoffice.org/2.0.0/index.html

keep in mind that OpenOffice.org often interoperates with Microsoft Office better than Microsoft Office interoperates with itself. http://diveintomark.org/archives/200...teroperability

Thanks for your replies
