Edward Tufte has declared PowerPoint as evil in this article.
I am not sure I can agree - although calling presentations "slideware" is pretty clever.
To harken back to the old "guns don't kill people, people kill people" mantra, I think it is more "PowerPoint isn't insipid, but the insipid can not be prevented from using PowerPoint".
And while taking no formal position on the former item, I always felt "guns don't kill people, bullets do" would have been more accurate.
But no one asked me.
