There was an article in the Chicago Tribune sunday magazine several months ago discussing how PowerPoint is actually a hinderance to creativity than a help. You have to work within Micro$oft's framework of how THEY think you should be creative. The author made some good points about how other software, while limited to the structure of that program's code, can provide different approaches to presentations. (And no, I don't remember off-hand which ones he was talking about. :) ) I've gathered since that this is an ongoing debate in academic circles.
On the other hand, I've seen some pretty good PowerPoint presentations, too. Like Ryan Suenaga's at Kfest. :) Later.................Howard ____________________________________________________________ Computer n.
