    The first version of PowerPoint was initially developed on 14 August1984 by Robert Gaskins and Dennis Austin of Forethought, Inc. ofSunnyvale, California. Originally designed for the Macintoshcomputer, the initial release was called "Presenter". In 1987, it wasrenamed to "PowerPoint" . Forethought was bought by Microsoft for$14 million USD ($26.2 million in present-day terms, and becameMicrosoft's Graphics Business Unit, which continued to further developthe software.PowerPoint changed significantly with PowerPoint 97.

    Prior to PowerPoint 97, presentations were linear, always proceedingfrom one slide to the next. PowerPoint 2000 introduced a clipboardthat could hold multiple objects at once. PowerPoint 2007introduced a complete redesign of the user interface wherecommands could be found in the "ribbon," rather than in traditionalmenus.
