If you ever used Harvard Graphics, it is more or less the same philosophy. The LyX interface is very clunky, I found it easier to write my presentation directly in LaTeX.
I have used both ways (LaTeX directly and LyX) for writing my presentions and I have no doubt that it is easier (at least to me) to do it with LyX.

I am enclosing a sample file. which uses Lyx with a lot of ERT. Even then it saves a lot of typing using Lyx. I have not used Harvard Graphics so one cant really compare but Beamer does give a very nice, slightly unusual presentation, very quickly and easily for the average Lyx user.
To use this sample file as some sort of template one would need to have a background Jpeg which is called samartv05.jpg in this file, which becomes the background for each slide. Have had to exclude this from this posting due to size of file. It should be pretty dark else change the color scheme to something else in the preamble.
Of course, using the Acrobat viewer is pretty important in this case.
