Powerpoint as a tool for school kids is really a bad idea. its almost like letting children use calculators in primary school. Smitha You are never given a wish without also being given the power to make it true. You may have to work for it, however. -- Richard Bach

Visio isn't much better. Sure, the pictures are nice, but having someone whose time you need, spending a day drawing in Visio what could be scribbled out in five minutes on paper is beyond annoying. Joe Woodbury When all else fails, there's always delusion. - Conan O'Brien

PowerPoint becomes evil in how it is used. I like the last paragraph of that article - PowerPoint is good for supporting a presention - not good if it replaces the presentation.

"[...] elevates format over content, betraying an attitude of commercialism that turns everything into a sales pitch" Same is true for Macromedia/Flash. Screw content, gimme the glitz! Sex sells!

This is so the reason my class attendance is poor. Half my professors do NOTHING but read off the slides, so I'm certainly not missing out by not going to lectures. For the others, once in a while, a little nugget of non-slide info appears, so it's worth it.... And when we had to presentations for class, we would lose marks if we DIDN'T use PowerPoint with <voice you use take talk to babies >all the pretty pictures and funny animations </> towamuse the useless professors. :mad: The kindest thing you can do for a stupid person, and for the gene pool, is to let him expire of his own dumb choices.
