Well, Bill - you can get half of that. As a diehard AppleWorks user (from 
early on), I have to say that if AWorks can open and manipulate 
PowerPoint files, I haven't found that setting yet. It will, however, 
open Excel and Word files just fine (and let you modify to your heart's 
desire). I'll have to experiment around, in case Kevin is right on the 
PowerPoint - then I could throw away my M$ PowerPointviewer, too!
