I was looking for a copy of the book on the CD, just as the EXCEL Bible.
Trust me, a book on the web does not cut it.
 Exhaustive but dry March 14, 2008

I'll say this is an exhaustive book, but there's something missing. It doesn't seem written by an author. Rather it seems to have been written mechanically. So it is a little dry and boring.

I am sorry I am not ready for a review at this moment. I will use this book as a reference to the preparation of my future presentations. However, it seems to me that this is a well written and detailed book and it is in accordance with my previous expectations.
Has everything you'd ever need in it September 30, 2007

A massive book that truly has everything you'd need to complete any project. My son has a new laptop with Vista- all other guides were not compatable with the new powerpoint program. This is a wealth of info from adding video to the disk included with backgrounds to help. We were very pleased with this purchase :)
