Do a File/Save As (actually click on Orb, SaveAs, Presentation 97-2003) and
save with a new filename. Copy all files to the Win XP (Office PPT 2003
computer and run the .ppt file. Clean up any formatting issues that may
occur. That way you can insure that it will work when needed for the actual
presentation. As long as it isn't too complicated or using special features
or fonts of 2007 that are not included in 2003 you should not have any
issues.

It's month later, and forgot how to do the conversion, so here it is
safely kept.
