If all they have is O97, then you/they have already invested in 
PPT97, so why bother looking anywhere else?

If they haven't used it before, then they won't need any of the new 
features. :-)

Use the K.I.S.S. principle.

About the only thing that springs to mind on the improvements is in 
PPT2K and PPT XP there is more support for various animations in the 
slides, as well as animated graphics formats IIRC.

That's all that I can recall being significantly different. Or 
atleast that's what the instructors I work with have mentioned.
