Marty,

People like me, who don't have Microsoft Office will need a viewer to see the presentation. Here's a link to the download of a free viewer:

Download details: PowerPoint Viewer 2003

Susanne, this is NOT true, if the person who posts the presentation does it correctly. They can "pack and go" which will make a stand alone presentation designed for PCs without Power Point.

I don't do most Dendros or large, "floofy orchids". For me it's minis (like Angraecoides), Masdies, Paphs, and others that crept in somewhere along the line. See my orchid list for complete collection (usually not current.)

I kept getting emails from people with PP shows and I couldn't open them until I found the player.

Well i don't have a clue as to how to post a link to my PowerPoint show. I need to send it via email to somebody who has the know how to do it. Please don't try to explain it to me...I'm HOPELESS when it comes to computers.

If anyone wants to post it for me please contact me at the addy I posted in this thread earlier today.

As a new orchid enthusiast, I'm looking forward to the new information available.
Does anyone have any good resources for ordering orchids online? I don't have great deal of discretionary income and I would live to buy more orchids. I'm especially interested in Oncidiums. Thank you for any info.

I have a good word processing program. It's an open source software. Go to Open Office.org. It has all of the features of Word and is easier to use. I love it's power point equilvalent. I too, am computer illiterate.

Marty did you get my PPT presentation? I tried looking for it here but can't find it.

Do the "Orchids Are Easy" and the Powerpoint count as two entries into the contest?
