Suppose I never made a presentation in my life and now I'm in a need of such an app. The first place to go to in search for a tool would be the internet. And after taking a look at both of the websites I'm pretty sure I'd chose Keynote. As I'm doing right now. The first thing I learned on Keynote's homepage is that you can do very very cool animations with it like "magic move" and those perspective slide transitions. And this precious information was just ONE click away in a video.

You know how my search for a similar video describing the features of Powerpoint went? Well, I'll let the screenshot speak for itself:

After all, what else could I want besides that uber-cool perspective transition and flash-like animations. Why on earth would I want to buy Powerpoint. And this is not just my impressed half talking. The other, rational half is thinking it too. Marble graph bars?! Cool! Tinted glass pie charts?! Wow! As far as I'm concerned (a presentation noob) Powerpoint is just some application that everyone's using, but Keynote is fun fun fun. I have this big urge to make a presentation. About anything. Im going out to buy the Economist and redraw all it's charts in Keynote. Srsly.

So thoughts are welcome on why would I want to use Powerpoint after visiting Keynote's website.
