OOPS – I HAD A TYPO, WHICH IS CORRECTED NOW (2014, not 2007)
I know there are a lot of people out there still using PPT 2003. This was very evident when talking with people at PPTLive last week. And just as way of record, all of my computers have both PPT 2003 and PPT 2007 installed.

So for all of us PPT 2003 users, here is some important news and dates Microsoft announced last week:

1. Support for PowerPoint 2003 will end October 14, 2008 unless you have upgraded to SP3 (so this means you will need SP3 to install any updates after the middle of this month). SP3 for Office 2003 can be downloaded for free from Microsoft’s site.

2. Support for PowerPoint 2003 is slated to end in April 2014 (so this means no further service packs or updates will be developed and distributed after this date).
