Viewing a Powerpoint Presentation?

wrkactjob

I have been sent a file to view that was created using Power Point, but I dont have PP installed on my PC

Is there any free software that I can use to view the file?

Any suggestions?

I read somewhere there is something very similar to Microsoft Office suite that is legal but I cant find it anywhere

Do you have any Office Suites installed on your pc? I.e OpenOffice?

If not I would recommend having something like OpenOffice installed. Its completely free and includes Word Editor, Spreadsheet, Design, and Presentation software which can play powerpoint files

Yeah as MercilessKiller has said get OpenOffice its free and its a bit better then Office from Microsoft.

Another alternative way to view PowerPoint presentations is with a Gmail account: see http://lifehacker.com/software/web-as-desktop/-268582.php or create and share presentations online with Zoho Show.

How do you get it for £18 via the NHS, because I start work for the NHS very soon?
