Windows vista comes installed in many new computers. The troubled operating system has come under much scrutiny. The general consences is that you will not be asked to pay if the system comes already installed on your computer but to upgrade will cost you.

What is the difference between Windows Vista and windows premium?

THere is no such OS called windows premium., but in vista there are many flavours called vista basic, home premium and vista ultimate.

Is Microsoft PowerPoint included in Basic Windows Vista?

PowerPoint is part of Microsoft Office, which you have to pay for, so it is separate from Vista or XP or any other operating system. Basic Windows Vista is rubbish anyway and you shouldn't get it, if you want Vista make sure you get at least Home Premium edition or you're just wasting your money. If you just want PowerPoint, you can either buy Microsoft Office (availably in all good computer shops, as well as online shops like Amazon, Play.com, etc), or you can get a similar free alternative called OpenOffice.Org, which has a free version (its all available to download from www.openoffice.org)
