Right, but this person was asking about using voiceover. Until a few years ago Microsoft uses the MSAA API and I'm assuming they are now on the Microsoft UI Automation. I guess Microsoft didn't want to be bothered porting their accessibility work to talk to the Apple accessibility APIs, so no VoiceOver access.

Keynote is the Apple iWorks answer to Microsoft Office PowerPoint. With Powerpoint 
being totally inaccessible, Keynote is 100% more accessible <smile>. Keynote 
can import and export PowerPoint files but, as a secret and proprietary format it is 
impossible for Keynote to do this perfectly so you might have some variations in 
positioning, fonts and the like, but all the content should be there roughly as it 
was in the original PowerPoint.

What program does well with voiceover again that allows me to read power points?
