Is there a power point viewer somewhere that will work in OSX
10.4.10 that is down loadable without purchasing power point from MS?
NeoOffice?
And Apple Keynote also :-)

I guess there's no freeware that will work with Mac? On the PC, I had a small viewer available from MS that allowed me to view a PP file without having PP on the system which was nice since I don't use PP and only need it to see a file if someone sends me one once in a while...like TODAY :-))
Oh well....I guess asking MS to provide this "curtesy" to the competition might be asking a bit much :-)
Anyway, thanks for the reply.

Did you miss Biagio's pointer to NeoOffice? I'm pretty sure it has a PP component, compatible with MS's PP, and it's free... it also has word, spread*** and database capabilities, too. It's a very decent open source alternative to MS.

I'll check this out. Thanks to you both.

A google search for "Mac PowerPoint viewer" turned up the following link

http://www.tucows.com/preview/206534
I found this on my initial search before posting here. I could be wrong, but I believe this utility says it requires a "classic" OS. Mine is Cocoa being OSX10.4.10.
I passed on it for this reason. Was I mistaken to do so?
