Input/Output:  

PowerPoint does not provide for direct importing from scanners, digital cameras and other devices, requiring additional uploading. However, with expanded compatibility for various file types, this is only a minor inconvenience. PowerPoint provides for email, web, CD and DVD publication. Best of all, PowerPoint presentations can be viewed directly from the 2007 Microsoft Outlook, which expands its use to handheld and PDA devices that use 2007 Microsoft Outlook.

Slideshow Quality:  

For professional presentations, PowerPoint is still the standard bearer. However, PowerPoint doesn’t lend itself to hobby-based projects as well as other photo slideshow software programs. The improvements made for the new edition are very welcome, but unfortunately, these only further enforce PowerPoint’s strengths in professional presentations.
