Windows XP Home Ed. w/ Power Point?

Archived from groups: microsoft.public.windowsxp.newusers (More info?)

I am seriously looking at a laptop that comes with Windows
XP Home Edition preinstalled. Question - Does Powerpoint
program come on the Home Edition or do I need to upgrade
to XP Professional just for this capability? Thanks!

Greetings --

Neither WinXP Home nor WinXP Pro include PowerPoint.

Neither the Microsoft Office application suite, nor any of its
individual component applications (Word, Excel, PowerPoint, Access,
Outlook, etc.), have _ever_ been "part" of *any* Windows operating
system. They are, and always have been, separate applications, that
must be purchased and installed separately.
