Reader ReviewsI was going to take a course to learn powerpoint, but the times were all wrong for me, so I ordered this nifty book and with its help put together my first powerpoint lecture with an outline and graphics. It was a big hit with the audience and was easy to do. I think this book is terrific - and 2003 was fine for me - I still have Windows XP. Did this in May 2008.
