PowerPoint presentations are a popular way to pass around information. I know quite a few people who use PowerPoint to create amusing photo slide shows, for instance. How do you view a presentation if you don’t have a copy of PowerPoint installed? Use the free PowerPoint Viewer 2003.
This is a very simple, lightweight program that does an excellent job of displaying full-featured presentations. This update (just released today) is the first major update to the viewer in years, so if you’re using the older version you might want to consider replacing it with this one.
