You can use OpenOffice.org to create presentations, and you can even
save them in PowerPoint format. You may not be able to use other
people's PowerPoint presentations in some cases.
You can install Crossover Office, a commercial version of WINE, and
run PowerPoint itself. Hal Pomeranz delivered his DNS presentation to
the Corvallis LUG that way last week, and he says it works very well
for him.
