Sorry for the slight hijack, but in my experience Pastor, about 80% of Powerpoint sluggishness can be thwarted by simply scaling down the graphics. No need for a 12 megapixel JPEG in a powerpoint that is going to be displayed at 1024x768. The same goes for video clips (scale them down and convert them into WMV using Windows Media Encoder beforehand) and audio (make it a 128k WMA file instead of a WAV). In the overwhelming majority of cases, when I see a sluggish, choppy powerpoint on a 2GHz machine and 2GB of RAM, that does the trick.
