Microsoft powerpoint?

Question

I'm going crazy here! Is there any possible way to download a free trial version of the actual Microsoft Powerpoint? The only thing that I found available on their website was a free trial of the newest Microsoft Office (which includes Powerpoint), but you need to have Vista to run it.
Any answers are appreciated, thanks!

I downloaded Microsoft Office 2007 (I have XP) and when I went to extract the files, it told me that a newer version of Windows was needed to complete the process.

Use Impress, it's free ALL the time not just a trial.

Answer 2

You can't really download a free trial of Powerpoint, but you do have a couple of options nonetheless. If all you want to do is view a powerpoint file, you can download the free powerpoint viewer here:

If you want to be able to produce powerpoint presentations for free, you can use the free office suite known as OpenOffice. It has a program called Impress which has identical functionality and document types to Microsoft Office. That can be downloaded here:

The newes version is Microsoft Office 2007 which you can install on Windows XP with no problem, I have it on XP!!
I wanted to take a look at the site and put the link here but seems you have found it yourself

Answer 4

I'm guessing you need Powerpoint to view a presentation that someone has sent to you. If that's the case, go to openoffice.org and download Open Office. It is a free office suite that will open and create MS Office docs, spreadsheets, and powerpoint presentations.

Answer 5

You can read and write most powerpoint documents with OpenOffice.org. It is free and has most of the Microsoft Office capabilities.

Answer 6

As has been said: Use OpenOffice.
