Hey all,

I'm going to be doing a few teaching workshops in the summer, and I'm looking for some kind of good presentation software - the first hour of the workshop will be me using a laptop hooked up to a screen, and I need to present some photos to the attendees.

I can't for the life of me recall the name of the PC presentation thing that everyone uses nowadays, but is there a free Mac equivalent?

Are you thinking of Power Point on the PC? You could try NeoOffice J. It's a version of OpenOffice for the Mac. It has a Power Point-style app in it.

Better bet is to just download open office. They have a stable mac version, with "presentation". I find neo-office J to be very slow. You just need to make sure X11 is installed.

iWork is not free, but it's quite reasonable. And Keynote is an excellent presentation program.
