How to view Powerpoint on a Mac

G

Guest

We're using a MAC: OSX 10.3.9

We would like to view a powerpoint presentation someone has sent us, but we
do not have powerpoint on the machine.

We know there is a special viewer for mac users, but you need to be running
OS9.
We can't do that, and don't prefer to either.

Does anyone know how we can view POWERPOINT on a MAC in OSX, without having
powerpoint? Is there another viewer people can recommend?

Thanks!

Wow. Tough one actually.

One suggestion.. Take the 30 day demo version and go!

Although - it has limitations.
