PPT – Tips & Tricks: Make it clear
Microsoft PowerPoint (or simply PowerPoint) is a presentation program, created by Robert
Gaskins and Dennis Austin at a software company named Forethought. It was released on April 20,
1987, initially for Macintosh computers only. Microsoft acquired PowerPoint for $14 million three
months after it appeared. This was Microsoft's first significant acquisition, and Microsoft set up a
new business unit for PowerPoint in Silicon Valley where Forethought had been located.
PowerPoint became a component of the Microsoft Office suite, first offered in 1989 for
Macintosh and in 1990 for Windows, which bundled several Microsoft apps. Beginning with
PowerPoint 4.0 (1994), PowerPoint was integrated into Microsoft Office development, and adopted
shared common components and a converged user interface.
PowerPoint's market share was very small at first, prior to introducing a version for Microsoft
Windows, but grew rapidly with the growth of Windows and of Office. Since the late 1990s,
PowerPoint's worldwide market share of presentation software has been estimated at 95 percent.
