Summary

Several different software packages are available for creating presentations, including Microsoft PowerPoint and OpenOffice Impress. These packages rely heavily on wizards and templates to make building presentations easy. They also include the capabilities to include images, text, audio, video, simple animations, and page transitions.

Projectors offer a great way to show a presentation to a large crowd. There are several different options available for projectors. Be sure to check the features of the projector you are purchasing so it works for your needs.

Once a presentation is complete, you can connect either a laptop or a desktop computer to a projector to display the presentation to a group. Connecting a projector is a fairly easy process for laptops and requires some simple adjustments for desktop computers.
