It was mentioned that the presentation had originally been done using
Powerpoint. That is where they went wrong. If they were intending to
present it using SOffice, they should have created it using SOffice or
at least tested and fixed it so it would have been clean. I watched a
SOffice presentation at the last plug meeting that worked perfectly and
looked sharp. I think the NT guys are just jealous that they didn't get
to see a BSOD. I'd like to see how well Powerpoint can import a finished
presentation that was done using SOffice or Corel's product !
