 I have no personal experience with this, but given that it' seems to  
 be based on Adobe Air, which works ell on the Mac, has a free version  
 to try which allows you to download your finished presentations, I  
 can't see a downside. It's probably worth a run with the free version  
 for a while before considering upgrading to a paid version, with  
 careful attention to bandwidth costs vs purchase cost of he full  
 version.

Only that with the free version everything is done online - all image  
processing, every change to layout, every changed idea, the download  
of the final product (Everything!) is a bit more bandwidth used up -  
so with a large presentation this could conceivably make significant  
inroads into your monthly traffic allowance.


I'm simply saying that it would be useful to run with the free version  
for a while and see how your traffic costs are affected. It could be  
that any increase in costs might make it more worthwhile to use one of  
the paid versions. Only you can make this judgement, bearing in mind  
that we do have a teenager involved with all this:-)

Pretty impressive, though I'm not keen on pricing 'per annum'. Agree  
with Peter that it would be worth playing with the free version.
