Rob, 

There are no dumb questions, only dumb operating systems.  <Tee hee,
reference to the Old School thread.  Wasn't DOS based on RDOS, "really dumb
operating system"?  Or is that a myth?>

Anyway, in PowerPoint, select "View" from the toolbar, and choose "Notes
Page."  "Notes Pages" is also an option in the print menu, under "Print
what:" that you can use for your handouts.
