Adding show-length narration to a PowerPoint presentation

[Malcolm Walker]

Using PowerPoint 2000
In the PPT Tools Web site at: http://pptfaq.com/FAQ00703.htm is a FAQ
about adding narration to a Point presentation. I need guidance please

I exported the audio to MiniDisc and then ported that back to the

computer and told PowerPoint to use it as I recorded the narration.<

1. Could I use a device other than a MiniDisc or is using a MiniDisc no
more than a means to end? IOW for the word `MiniDisc' the words `an
audio recording/playback device connected to the computer' could be
substituted?

2. What in simple terms is the meaning of the words: `and then ported
that back to the computer'? To me to port is to carry and from that
meaning I understand that the narration, for this procedure' is being
played not to a speaker but to the computer. How is this done?
