A person of our mutual acquaintance uses troff to make PDFs which he then displays in landscape. I remember hearing about slide production system a few years ago that was supposed to be the new hotness. But I haven't heard of it much since (not that I would have) so I'm not sure what it was. Googling "powerpoint replacement" I find quite a few things with names dumb enough to be it. I think the answer is going to depend on what you presenting to whom. Need embedded movies? Need to be something HR can put on a laptop before you get there? Need to impress a technical person with razzle-dazzle? _______________________________________________ gnhlug-discuss mailing list gnhlug-discuss@mail.gnhlug.org http://mail.gnhlug.org/mailman/listinfo/gnhlug-discuss/
