Apple's own Keynote... part of iWork
It is what Steve Job uses to give his keynotes ;)
I use it myself for all the presentations I give to MUGs here in
Victoria.
http://www.nicholaspyers.com/presentations/... many of them have PDF
versions of the slides I use... sure you lose some of the effects,
but you get an idea.
In particular checkout http://www.nicholaspyers.com/presentations/

It covers Keynote 2... and we are now up to Keynote 3... but it gives
you an idea of what Keynote can do for you... the sample file for
Keynote used just about every new feature of Keynote 2... just to
show them off.
I used PowerPoint for years... now I wouldn't touch it... Keynote is
a far better product... from ease of use to style... and it just
keeps on improving
