You cannot legally download a full version of PowerPoint, however you can order a free trial version of MS Office which will be fully functional for 30 days' time. The disk will be sent to you from Microsoft - they would not want/let you copy their software onto your own media.\n\nOther Options:\n\nIf you don't need to create MS PowerPoint presentations but do need to be able to view them, there is also a free downloadable viewer - you can view and print using that download.\n\nIf you need to be able to create full presentations for more than 30 days in the future, your options are to buy MS office or find an alternative program. One easy and free alternative is Open Office's "IMPRESS."

power point, instead of hand outs

I don't think you can get the whole powerpoint program free.  You can get the powerpoint viewer free, but it won't allow you to make your own presentations.  You can usually buy such software cheaper on e-bay than anywhere else.

Speaking from personal experience as someone who regularly both gives powerpoint presentations and is on the recieving end of a lot as well my main tips can be summarised like this;\nAvoid "Death by Powerpoint" where every single thing you are oing to say has a slide\nKeep to bullet points\nUse custom animation sparingly- while it is ok to have something spin to emphasise it, don't over do it\nMake sure your points don't show up until you are ready for them- otherwise people will just read the slide and be away ahead of you.\nUse powerpoint as an aid, not the focus of your presentation- basically plan with the idea in mind that if technological problems raise their head, you should still be able to do your presentation without it\nPrint out copies of slideshow for the audience, but think about when to give them out- they may want them to write notes beside when you ae talking, but they can also be a distraction with people reading on ahead again and not listen to what you say\nKeep the slides easy to read and with as little information as possible on them-again to emphasise Powerpoint is an aid to the presentation, not the presentation itself.\nGood luck

If you would like a free copy of power point viewer you can obtain one from Microsoft at the source link provided below.  If you are looking for a free copy of power point software in order to create presentations, Microsoft refers to that as piracy, and it is illegal.  The second link is to the office 2007 website where you can use it for free evaluation, but it won't let you print or save.  (useless, I know).  If you know where to look you can get into beta testing, however, considering they have recently closed Office 2007 Beta, it will be at least six or seven months, quite likely another 1 1/2 - 2 1/2 years before MS is going to produce another "new" office.\nLastly, check out this Yahoo Answers post, (third link) they make several references to www.openoffice.org.  <- FREE last link will take you directly to the download page of MS competitor based on the opensource movement "OpenOffice.org is provided under the GNU Lesser General Public Licence (LGPL)."  Anytime you want free software, searching for something under open source or freeware is a good idea.
