Why NO PowerPoint on my Office XP Small Business?

[Hartmut Berghoff]

Why? You did not buy PowerPoint. Is it Microsoft's fault you completely
failed to do any homework before purchase?

That is a bit too simple. Older Office Small Buisness contained Powerpoint. So
my natural behavior is, to expect no change. There were no publications
available to everey Office user saying that MS will remove ppt form the Small
Business. Many sellers don't clearly specify the contents. If I buy in a
shop, then perhaps I notice, that there is writeen something of Outlook,
Word, Excel and Publisher. This should let me ask, wether ppt is not
included. But today many users buy online. Then you open your package and
start installing befor you regard the lack of ppt.

Hi Beacher,

MS Office 2003 is the first edition of
Office Small Business that has included Powerpoint
http://microsoft.com/office/howtobuy

Other Office editions (standardd, Professional,
Premium) had Powerpoint, previously, but not the
Small Business Edition, it had Publisher.
http://microsoft.com/office/previous

========
I have contacted several times, several ways trying to find out WHY my Office
XP Small Business from Toshiba on my laptop (came with CD to install office)
does NOT install PowerPoint!
Powerpoint is on all my other computers, old Office comes with Powerpoint! I
have to do all my PowerPoint on my old Win 98 computer. I even have to bring
old laptop & new Toshiba in order to do presentation. Can't go back & forth
because new Toshiba does not have floppy drive & old Toshiba doesn't have USB
for my little Sandisk.
Still no one gives me answer: IS MY OFFICE CD failing to install
Powerpoint? Because it is just too baffling to contemplate that this is the
only Office XP version that does not include PowerPoint! All the cheaper ones
(Office XP for teachers, etc) INCLUDE Power Point. This is not fair.
Microsoft should supply me with PowerPoint. >>
