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?

You do realize, do you not, that Powerpoint was originally written for the Mac? That Office 2004 contained several features that were not available in the Windows version? And that Office 2008 for Mac will contain several features not available in the latest Windows version?

Microsoft Office has always run better on the Mac than it has on any Windows machine, and it will continue to do so.

I didn't know that. I'm really a newbie on Mac's, but I like mine a lot so far. None of the PC hassles I had with the other computer. I have that PC sitting here right next to the IMac but it's now off line. I installed XP/SP2 and use it strictly for the flight simulator. I'm still working with MS on that and am in fact an MVP with them on that program.
I have Microsoft Office for Mac but use it for Word only. I think if I had known a bit more about Text Edit when I bought the IMac, I could have saved the money I spent on MS Office. I think the teacher/school version I bought was $129.
Actually the only reason I need a PP viewer at all is the odd PP file I get through the mail. Other than that, I really have no use for it.
