Computer aided presentation

Doug Engelbart unveiled the computer based presentation during the Mother of All Demos. This was a landmark moment in the future of all computing. In the demo Doug unveiled the first mouse while he discussed the finer points of operating the computer. This was the first time a computer had been used to illustrate the points being made during a presentation. The Computer aided presentation was later made most profitable by Microsoft, with the application Powerpoint.
