What does it take ?

Im new to this whole computer world and working with software, why is everything so hard to figure out when trying to present a presentation on a computer using powerpoint

I sympathise with you but unfortunately PowerPoint is one of the easiest programmes for a novice to pick up most of the other programmes require at least several weeks of experience before you start to become competent.

I would suggest if you can to book yourself on to a training class or to complete some online tutorials. Practice really will make perfect.
