Death by PowerPoint.
I've just sat through two days and probably close on 400 PowerPoint slides worth of presentations about the state of the IT channel in the UK. Fighting the early stages of a coma this afternoon I happened upon a great idea. Someone infinitely more talented than me should write a PowerPoint virus that infects presentations longer than five slides and deletes the excess leaving only the first slide, the last slide and 3 randomly selected ones from the middle. Business life would be a little more bearable.
Conclusion
o PowerPoint presentations generally suck
o They should be used to back up a verbal point
o They should not be used as group reading tools
